Not gonna lie. I thought the same thing when I read that story. Then again, I look at things much differently than I did 10 years ago. Who was on the train would be the first clue.
But are we?
Jade is tougher than steel.
That caught my eye too. Also, why are taxpayers shelling out 7 billion a year for this? I couldn't get that clarified in the article.
I remember seeing some posts many months back about some antifa related derailment plots and found this article from Dec 2020 - https://bigleaguepolitics.com/antifa-linked-washington-women-former-democrat-organizer-charged-with-terrorist-attack-in-train-derailment-plot/ It looks like they were using a device to jam the signals
This article mentions antifa pouring concrete on the tracks while working with the signal jammers - https://www.bizpacreview.com/2017/12/19/antifa-deletes-posts-sabotaging-train-tracks-washington-train-derailment-577612/

That happened early 2018 in VA. Supposedly there was antifa chatter about planned attacks on the train and on GOP members before this happened.
