That is to say, when I got to the shop for my paper this morning I was surprised not to see at least one headline. Probably with quote marks somewhere in it. You know – "Terrorist could have caused" horrible train crash…

As for Bastien’s comment, beyond economic damage, I believe on average more people die on the roads every day than died on Saturday and I see just about every day in my job (I work in travel news) images of smashed up cars as bad, if not usually worse, than those of the train.

Perhaps they’re just quietly undermining capitalism, safe in the knowlede that anything involving road transport (no matter how deliberate) is written off as an ‘accident’.
