I would guess this is also why the code was found: it's parallel construction.

Somebody was told to take a closer look.

Otherwise it would be very weird to have 3rd party developers disassembling firmware code. I've never heard of that happening because a train didn't want to start.



When the trains your company serviced start experiencing failures, you look at your workers. When the trains your company was supposed to service, but didn't manage to touch yet start experiencing failures, you might begin wondering about alternative explanations.

I imagine someone in the company was someone who knew (or was a parent of someone who knew) someone in Warsaw Hackerspace, and introductions were made.
