HERE’S THE INTERESTING PART
You really don't want a train carrying pressurized liquid chlorine derailing next to a populated stadium.

The software calculates track quality, population density, and emergency response times to quietly weave literal rolling bombs through the safest, most obscure rural corridors available.
One discovery leads to another.
