My Nephew was telling me over the phone that they also found unexploded Pipe bombs at the rails of the recent Florida Train Derailment, but this Government is keeping this out of the headlines!!!

These Open Boarders I do beliieve have let Terrorists in and Now More then Ever Americans need to be Vigilant!!!

Sounds a bit like an Internet legend. I don't think a pipe bomb would work.

Have you watched any videos of IED's and or VBID explosions caused on our troops during OEF and Iraq Wars over those years?

Yes, I'm not saying impossible, but there are much easier way to derail a train.

There are video images of the train wheel overheating and sparking. The crew tried to slow the train down but could not as a result. These are the preliminary images and explanation for now.

Per conversation with my Nephew over the weekend and today!

Me: How many pounds of explosives did they find at the tracks in Florida?

Steve: Not sure of the diameter but I think they said 8 foot pipe
Can't even find the report now

Me: Wow what city was it?

Steve: Can't even find the report Now. I feel like it was up in the Panhandle area?

Me: I'll keep Searching for anything!!!

Steve: I will to and get back to ya.

You’d think there’s be less tracing possible if you just bought a welder off of marketplace/craigslist and welded something onto a track…..

White Noise (Netflix) for anyone who wants to watch a movie.

I’m seeing posts about the government and a pilot program for emergency situations that was in EP and that the CDC updated the toxicity for vinyl chloride recently.

Where you leave room for doubt people will look and people will deceive and people will fill in. That’s why leaving doubt is such an effective political strategy for the federal government.

Just like all the "WILD FIRES AND CANYON FIRES OUT WEST"...

THE GUBMENT ALWAYS SEZ:

" it was a kid with fireworks or a campers fire or some douche bag burning trash or electrical lines sparking or transformers blowing up or lightening strikes..."

I SAY THATS A B.U.N.C.H. OF B.U.N.K.

ITS UNTRACEBLE TERRORIST HADJIS IN RENTAL CARS $300, HOME DEPOT GAS CANS $100 FOR 5 TWENTY GALLON CANS,
100 GALLONS OF GAS.$400 ...

SO FOR LESS THAN $1 L.A.R.G.E. ($1,000.00 DOLLARS)
THESE DAMN HADJIS ARE REAKING FREAKIN' HAVOC CAUSING BILLIONS & BILLIONS OF DOLLAR FIRES
WITH A MAXIMUM $1,000.00 OUTLAY...

YOU JUST NEVER HEAR THE TRUE STORY...

NEVER.

Or a frost heave on older tracks.

A good friend of mine (prolly 75ish yrs old) tells me tales of his past. Him and his brother worked a summer job back in the day to reclaim railroad ties from old abandoned tracks. According to him, getting the tracks up and off was easy. Digging out the railroad ties were a bitch.

I put a quarter on a rail once... it got smooched but didn't derail the train.

Yup, I've "processed several coins in a row, didn't phase the train.

There was a track maintenance shop next to the garage I worked in for a while. A tough bunch. They had a radial "portable" gasoline powered compressor that could run a single jackhammer. Some pistons created power and some were compressors.

Found a picture of the compressor: https://bangshift.com/bangshiftxl/old-ingersoll-rand-radial-engine-air-compressor-one-coolest-things-weve-ever-run-across/
