Twitter has a lot of pictures/info on it. Can't get them to post for some reason. Apparently being treated as a terrorist attack. Bag on train exploded and huge fireball burned some people, not sure if any paased

I was just traveling on a train from Verona to Florence, Italy yesterday. That thing was doing 270 km/hr. Can't imagine the damage that could happen from a bomb on one of those things.

It appears to have been a pressure cooker in a 5 gallon bucket all hidden in a shopping bag. It also doesn't appear to have fully detonated, but did create a flash fire that sent 18 to the hospital. We'll know more as the morning progresses, but early indications are that London and those subway riders were lucky.

Damn very lucky. That's what the Boston Bombers used and we all know what kind of damage those can do. What kind of shopping bag will hold a fricking 5 gallon bucket.

If they'd just remove some statues, everything would be fine.
