U.S. Mass Transit Alert Goes to 'Orange'
The United States put its subways, buses and commuter trains on high alert after the rush-hour London bombings, moving to code orange for mass transit amid concern about a possible "copycat attack'' by terrorists.

About 29 million people in the United States take commuter trains or subways on an average workday, and millions more take buses. The New York City area accounts for about a third of the rail total, followed by Chicago, Washington, Boston and Philadelphia. The West Coast's largest transit system is in San Francisco.
Wow, look at that....Boston, New York City, Chicago, DC, Philadelphia, San Francisco. Hmmmm. What do those cities have in common?
Oh yeah. They voted overwhelmingly against President Mission Accomplished in both elections.
Thanks again, pig farmers.
