Any move entails a lot of technical details and I suspect we will encounter a few issues as the new server goes live. Please be patient with us. It will be worth it! :) Please help by posting all issues here.

Same procedures as on an airplane, and not a single gun in the luggage bay has ever hijacked an airplane or caused it to blow up for no apparent reason.

If only the train was cheaper than the airplane, there might have come a reason to travel on one as a result of this...

Oh, wait, do they use body scanners on Trains?
