MTA plans security upgrades on rail lines

Transit officials in Los Angeles County say $ 10 million in improvements were planned before the discovery that Osama bin Laden had wanted Al Qaeda to strike U.S. rail systems.

Transportation officials are planning a number of security upgrades along Los Angeles County’s network of rail lines over the next year, including a chemical-detection system and scores of new video surveillance cameras.
