When the charges detonated, the resulting blast would annihlate a quarter of the forest. The SDC will be under investigation for transporting hazardous materials through a national forest. They win, diabolical, unfortunantly Blake got cold feet. More likely, Adam had only told her that they were going to 'hit' the train and prevent the cargo from reaching its destination. He probably didn't trouble her with how they were going to achieve that end. Why? Adam knew that Blake is a moral enough being that she would flinch from killing non-combatants. He was figured that the awe in which she held him would make her obey when the choice was presented to her. He figured wrong.

This is one possible explanation for Blake's book. Adam has changed lately and she's looking for some way, any way, to bring back the leader she virtually worshipped and who has been replaced by a cold-hearted killer. hmmm, well there seems to be only one permanent way to stop it, they could have removed the rails, but that would have postponed it at best. If they blew it up, the resulting cascade would have been the equivilent to probably 2 Nuclear Bombs worth of Dust.

I don't think Blake was completely ignorant of the plan of the train job. She probably knew they were going to be bombing a train, since Adam said "the charges", but perhaps Blake assumed that Adam had a plan for just hitting the cargo and not killing the crew members. Of course, that assumption proved incorrect.

Or maybe WC-83 is right, and she knew all about it, but just got cold feet.

Personally, I think Blake finally abandoning Adam had something to do with Moonslice. And I am 75 to 80% sure that Adam using Moonslice is what caused his moral degradation.
