Suspicious Derailments

These two stories are suspicious. Last weekend, there were two train derailments in the NYC area. One was on the PATH, the other was on Amtrack. There also was a derailment on the METRA in Chicago on Friday.

This is suspicious. Were they accidents? Were they an act of sabotage?

The official explanation is "All three incidents were accidents." That is possible. In retrospect, you might see coincidences that aren't there.

State comedians are eager to scare people regarding terrorism. If there was any evidence of sabotage, they would have mentioned it.

On the other hand, State insiders might want to hide evidence of sabotage. Otherwise, people might be afraid to commute to work.

Train tracks are a tempting target. There are many miles of unguarded track.

In this case, I believe the official explanation, "All three derailments were accidents." It's slightly suspicious. It is possible that terrorists have decided to attack commuter trains. It's disturbing to see three derailments in one week.
