Why write about it then? Even if you assume that enemies' intelligence already knows about it, then doesnt it just show that it doesn't work? Or maybe it is just fake cabin?

Oh, you’d have to criticize the entire humanity, not just the west. Plenty of that happens in the east, and south as well. People just don’t care much about it, because everyone loves the western drama.

You realise how easy it is to cut power lines or disrupt trains?

Literally everybody knows where they are located and can just walk and cause the service to be interrupted for a couple of days.

I assure you that foreign powers are aware of infrastructure.

There's no mystery to infra being both vulnerable and accessible, especially to belligerent world powers. It's all just degrees of consequence for attacking those components.

Additionally, a journalist would probably (reasonably) argue that writing about it exposes just how little consideration governments give to protecting this infra.
