And once they get in, these containers can go damn near anywhere by rail and never be inspected.

It is hard to conceal a nuclear bomb or a dirty bomb. I know there are sensors all around the busy ports that are looking for the tell-tale traces of a nuclear device. We need to get more of those and FAST. Encasing a bomb in enough lead or other deadening material will make it pass right by a sensor without detection. And, you are right. Once it’s cleared, it could go anywhere in the USA on the back of a truck or train.
