Al Qaeda has drawn a bullseye on a new American target: Subway trains
Al Qaeda is about to take on a new target — America’s trains — in an upcoming edition of its terror magazine, Inspire.
Issue No. 17 is headlined, “Train Derail Operations,” and will spell out ways to create rail disasters in a transportation system that lacks the stiff security procedures of airline travel.

The Transportation Security Administration (TSA) late last week reminded transit agencies and railroads about ways to protect their systems from terrorist attacks.
The TSA's message followed the release of a recent video from terrorist group Al-Qaeda that focused on threats to U.S. rail systems by homegrown violent extremists, TSA officials said in an emailed statement.

Business Insider UK Edition, 8/16/17:
Al Qaeda published an entire magazine on how to derail trains in Europe and America
- Al Qaeda magazine contains an 18-page guide on how to build a tool that could derail trains.
- The terrorist group singled out Britain, France, and America as targets.
- Train derailments are "not a martyrdom op" and "can be repeated," the magazine said.
Al Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula (AQAP) has dedicated an entire edition of its magazine to teaching followers how to derail trains in Europe and the US for future terrorist attacks.
In a guide published on Sunday in the 17th edition of Inspire, AQAP's online-only English-language propaganda magazine, the terrorist group wrote:
"For more than a year this idea has been extensively been researched by a group that has dedicated most of its efforts and time to come-up [sic] with a profound yet simple method in designing this tool.
"So that the Lone Mujahid [someone engaged in jihad] can carry along with him in his fight to bring great destruction upon the West's security, military and economy — by the Help of Allah.
"We now leave you with this exciting and interesting issue."
