Hi Phil [:)] <br /> <br />Yes the times have changed and NOT for the better. COWARDS from halfway around the world have touched our lives and not in a pleasant way. I don't envy you or other police officers now, I am sure the job was hard enough before 9-11. BUT now there are other concerns to worry about and we all must keep an eye out for anything out of the ordinary. <br /> <br />Personally I am doing less railfanning and when I do, staying in one spot less time than normal. I have never had any problems yet but really don't expect to either, no problems from other railfans and no problems from the railroad or local police. I have chased trains in my city late at night and been in some areas where I would not get out of my truck but I was trying to get engine numbers and not take pics. <br /> <br />Thanks for posting this and giving us some heads up about it. If we are doing nothing wrong then we should have no problem cooperating with the police. I plan to cooperate. <br /> <br />Take care and stay safe. [:)] <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />
