Rail sabotage

Okay kiddo, let me try to explain what rail sabotage is in a way you can understand. You know about trains, right? They are big vehicles that ride on tracks and carry people or things from one place to another. Well, sometimes bad people try to hurt others by damaging these tracks, which is called rail sabotage.

Now, damaging tracks can happen in different ways. Some people might put something on the tracks to make the train crash or derail. They might also take away parts of the tracks or tamper with them, which can cause the train to stop or slow down dangerously.

Rail sabotage is very dangerous and can hurt a lot of people. Sometimes, it can even cause deadly accidents. That’s why it’s important for everyone to take care of the train tracks and make sure they’re safe for trains to use.
