Terrorist attack on Russian train?

[DKMM]

The Nevsky Express (St. Petersburg to Moscow) was bombed last night and blown  off its rails.  Good thing it had the momentum to keep going over the bridge the bomb was planted on.  I was going to send my family on that train next month and instead just bought tickets to fly between cities.  I bet the prices will climb!

Glad to see nobody was killed.  I hope they catch the bastards  :seething:

Yeah, stuff like this is JUST what I want to hear ... considering I'll be over there in 3 weeks.

Well, in the Ukraine at least ... I hope everyone is ok

USCFAN,

It's highly unlikely you'll have problems in Ukraine...

Of course there is an election coming up so stay away from large groups of people wearing orange... Be careful of your pockets in crowded areas like on trains... Be wary of babushkas sitting in the lobby area of your apartment when you return from a day out... Be cautious if anyone wants you to drink with them... Be VERY careful when crossing roads...  Oh, and be very very careful of your heart and your head when dating beautiful women.

Other than that there are no dangers in Ukraine.

Be wary of babushkas sitting in the lobby area of your apartment when you return from a day out...

I'm curious, what sort of danger do they represent, a hit-and-waddle assault ?

Just watched the news. No big deal, nobody hurt or killed. The trains will be back on track & on shedual tomorrow.
No fears, Russians are a hardy bunch!!!
