Railways were a significant asset in WW2 for transport purposes and heavily guarded. Tunnels often had guards posted 24/7 as it was well known an 'accident' in a tunnel is a lot harder to clean up than one on open ground, and if you could damage the tunnel causing a collapse all the better.
Shit, they be talking about moles and I am thinking, snitch !

Much easier ways to derail a train. Or were the tracks guarded or inspected before a train approached?

@wdtvlive42 Thanks, 42. I did not know that all tunnels were guarded.
Yes, tunnels and bridges are the best place to cause derailments.
Hazmatrucksuch as gasoline tankers are not allowed to pass through thEisenhower tunnel.
They mustake US 6 over Loveland Pass when it is not closed by snow.
Yesterday an idiotrucker crashed on the final curve coming down US 6 from the pass and spilled a lot of diesel into a creek.
They should have such trucks pass through the tunnels.
