[quote user="Mr_Ash"] its not like people dont park along the tracks and go steal stuff these days, he's not hassling you he's doing his job. If you had pockets full of spikes you would be in jail right now. [;)] [/quote]Oh please - it depends on the situation.  Were it an operating line, then yes, you could expect to be arrested and with good reason.  If it's obviously an abandoned line, especially one that's been scrapped, and you pick up a spike or an old sign that was discarded, I really doubt a cop is going to put you in jail for that.  Yes, the cop was indeed doing his job, but police are human too and they don't look forward to booking someone for picking up junk, with all the attendant paperwork involved, when there are much bigger fish to fry.  Obviously this particular officer could've, if he wanted to, run you and your friend in for trespassing but he didn't because he didn't feel you were up to no good and there was no point in doing so.  Cops know the neighborhoods and communities.
