Yeah back in the eastern US, some of those companies are getting
downright aggressive when it comes to railfanning, and around my area
The Roseville Yard up by Sacramento is also that way...some of the
railroads, I think Norfolk Southern in particular is now prosecuting
tresspassing...as if the US court system isn't overloaded enough to nail
tresspassing...ttyl
