    They already do the inspections for rail stations and they’re about 1/10th as annoying and time-consuming as the ones for airports.

    Trains just don’t have the capacity for a 9/11 so I don’t see that changing any time soon.

      Not to bring down buildings, but in terms of terrorism they sure do.

      Any modern 9/11 attempt will be made by cargo jet. So protection against aircraft bringing down buildings is provided by the US airforce, not the TSA.
