| #6 'We don't know where this started, just that it was in the area underneath the train and then obviously engulfed the train in flames.' Could be a traction motor short-circuit - electrical fire. I believe a lot of SEPTA is electric powered. |

| #1 Given the massive # of passengers crammed into a space and minimum security checks for bordering passengers. How long before the bad guys will go after Subway or mass transit trains? |
