The four rail attacks in Europe & Asia since 2004, including the most recent in India, highlight the vulnerability of passenger rail & other surface transportation systems to terrorist attack & demonstrate the need for greater focus on securing these systems. This testimony is based primarily on a Sept. 2005 passenger rail security report & selected recent program updates. It addresses: (1) the extent to which the Dept. of Homeland Security (DHS) has assessed the risks facing the U.S. passenger rail system & developed a strategy based on risk assessments for securing all modes of transportation, including passenger rail; & (2) the actions that fed. agencies have taken to enhance the security of the U.S. passenger rail system.
