No, the signal system would drop out and someone would show up before a “terrorist” could remove the rail. That would require a saw or torch as almost all rail is welded especially in curves. It’s harder to screw with modern railroads than you would think.

Wouldn’t a few sections of missing track around one of those curves be more effective?  Span the break with some silver or gray duct tape, so it is hard to spot?

I don’t want to offer up any more guesses/solutions and possibly help actual lunatics.

I wouldn't imagine that a pipe bomb would do too much against railroad tracks.  Usually pipe bombs are full of low explosive or something with a very low brisance that wouldn't do much to a steel rail. I remember practicing cutting railroad rails with c4 and it took quite a bit to cut the steel.  I'm going with idiots or the misidentified shunt theory.

If that’s the case, I can understand the reaction by someone who’s not educated on RR systems.

Even if it was breaking, before alarming the public, more information would be available.  Ain't buying that excuse.

There is a 99.9 percent chance the “bomb” was a shunt or tjc and some maintainer got double time to find a new one and replace it.

Oh yeah. Poor track conditions and hauling hazardous materials by rail had nothing to do with the railroad company or the government.

There would be a huge difference between the power of an 18” x 1/2” explosive and an 18” x 2” device.  The latter wild do so serious damage.
