Teams of police with sniffer dogs and bomb detecting equipment are now patrolling the rail network amid fears over a transport system terror plot. The move will see passengers facing tighter checks at a number of stations around the country. Police will also use their powers under the Terrorism Act to stop and search anyone who arouses suspicion. The latest development will see dogs capable of sniffing out explosives wandering among passengers at some of the country's busiest stations.
