Amtrak to Screen Passengers

Amtrak will begin randomly screening passengers' bags and will have gun-toting officers and bomb-sniffing dogs on platforms and trains. Amtrak said that passengers will not suffer delayed service due to the security changes. [ See story ]

That's because the security measures will be canceled out by the launch of another initiative, which they're calling: Operation Hey Remember How Fast the Japanese Trains Run? Welp, we're finally going to equal that awesome speed.

The nickname for the combined operations is: "Frisk and Whisk. "
