Are you being pedantic? Because obviously they set off the bombs while in the tunnel between stations rather than at a station?

How is that being pedantic. This dude is worried about maps of STATIONS, what does that have to do with bombs being set off in a TRAIN?

Is that a concrete-enough example?

I don't think the maps are an issue either, but you pretending to be ignorant that they are attacked, and that lines between them are attacked, is weird.

I'm not pretending trains aren't being attacked and it's incredibly disingenuous that you need to pretend that's what I'm saying.

What I'm saying maps of STATIONS have nothing to do with TRAINS being attacked. It seems like you think trains and stations are the same thing, and that's something you'll need to figure out for yourself.
