Comment My plan for a terror attack. By Billy. (Score 1) 412
How about you look up the public schedules for passenger trains, then go to a big, tall bridge and pry up some tracks? Don't forget to jumper a fat wire across the break, as many trains use electric track monitoring systems.
Not only will a train full of passengers plummet to their death, but now countries like the US will panic, and install thousands of monitoring stations covering every mile of track. The economic cost will be staggering and passed onto the train companies, in turn, raising prices dramatically. Shipments and rail travel will grind to a halt, crippling the economy even further.
Terrorist WIN!
Just like china bankrupt itself building the great wall (only to be taken down by one poorly paid, inept guard), the US will spend so much time and money being paranoid it will crumble and fall.
(yes, i know Australia has next to no rail service)
