Train with 19 wagons derails in Russia due to interference by unauthorised persons

A strange turn of phrase in the headline. Consider… “A derailment due to interference by authorised persons”.

It’s a relevant distinction.

Interference by unauthorized person’s = outsider threat.

Other possibilities could be intentional malicious actions by authorized people (insider threat), or a mistake by authorized people (human error, incompetence, negligence, …)

Right on.

It’s just that I’d have expected those synonyms to have been used in the headline.

Though thinking about it some more: maybe the vagueness is actually more correct if it’s unknown if the interference was deliberate.

I suppose it’s a small mercy that the headline wasn’t “unauthorised interference on Russian railway, you’ll never guess how many cars detailed”.

Unauthorized persons discover this one weird trick. Fat controllers hate them!

Trains are cool, but industrial sabotage against authoritarian regimes is cooler

Based on the article, I can’t tell if this is a good thing or a bad thing. What was on the train? Where was it going?

It happened not too far away from Moscow, so it is quite unlikely that it was a military cargo train. But who knows?

From the picture, it looks like a cargo train and not a passenger train. Anything that hurts Russian industry is positive for the war effort. Particularly when it comes to trains as now that route is closed for a time, in addition to the loss of the train and cargo.
