Italy says railways hit by 'serious sabotage' as Winter Olympics begin

[groundloop]

3. That's one advantae the US has over Europe - terrorists can't attack our High Speed Rail .....

I was in France for the Olympics and they did a darned good job of recovering from those attacks on the rail system. We took the train from Paris the day after the sabotage, there were just a few sections of track where the train had to slow down.

The US is really missing out by not having high speed rail between major cities, it's much much more convenient that airlines.
