minus-squaremholiv@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up3arrow-down1·2 months agoOk. Thinking explosives. Where are high speed trains being attacked by explosives? I don’t hear much in Germany, France, China, or Japan.
minus-squareThis is fine🔥🐶☕🔥@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up4·2 months agoDon’t jinx it. My point is once a terrorist attack happens, there will be TSA like checks for getting on high speed trains. My city (Mumbai) has seen multiple local train bombings so the newly built metro lines have baggage scanner at the entry.
minus-squareleftzero@lemmynsfw.comlinkfedilinkarrow-up2·2 months ago Don’t jinx it. As I said in another reply, too late, by twenty-one years. And yet, no TSA-like bullshit.
minus-squaremholiv@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up2·2 months agoCommuter trains aren’t high speed trains though.
minus-squareleftzero@lemmynsfw.comlinkfedilinkarrow-up1·2 months agoTrue (though the AVE also stops at Atocha, as it did back in 2004). They also tend to carry more passengers, which means the number of victims was significantly larger than if it had been an AVE. And yet, your prediction of a nine-eleven-like security theater didn’t come to pass. 🤷♂️
minus-squareFizz@lemmy.nzlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up4arrow-down1·2 months agoThose countries arent full of Americans though. If a thing exists Americans will try to attack it.
minus-squareleftzero@lemmynsfw.comlinkfedilinkarrow-up3arrow-down1·2 months agoMadrid, 2004. Didn’t cause security theater, though. 🤷♂️
minus-squaremholiv@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up2·edit-22 months agoThose are dense packed commuter trains from more than 20 years ago. Sort of the opposite of comfortable high speed long distance trains now days. If you search for “bomb train” you’ll get results but it might be worth looking deeper than the headline.
minus-squareleftzero@lemmynsfw.comlinkfedilinkarrow-up1·2 months ago Those are dense packed commuter trains from more than 20 years ago So, even fucking worse when it comes to number of victims. If you search for “bomb train” you’ll get results I don’t need to search for it, it was all over the news for months. And yet, we got over it.
