Canadian Authorities Arrest 2 for Alleged Plot to Derail Train 
---------------------------------------------------------------


 
In Canada, two men accused of plotting to derail a passenger train are
scheduled to appear in court today. Officials there said the men
received "direction and guidance" from members of al-Qaeda in Iran, but
declined to elaborate on the nature of the alleged links and said there
was no evidence it was a state-sponsored plot.
