[quote user="wabash1"] then you wonder why the railroaders hate foamers . you guys are the first to complain when the law comes to your spots and questiions you and the same guys who complain when railroaders turn you in. then you guys are the same guys who female dog and moan when you here of someone screwing up and making a bad name for foamers , then you have the nerve to turn railroaders in on the abuse button here for your own fantisy to continue. With all that said my point is the same guys ( all you guys posting) Are attempting to go out and draw alot of attention to your self and really set yourselfs back 20years and if you come out in the swarms that your trying to do so you can prove your points, then great i Hope everyone of you go to jail ( for your cause yea right) and i will help the police arrest the ones in my area. this is not a game. You want to be accepted do it the right way not as a bunch of vigalanties .  No im not parinoid and i dont belive the world is ending. but when i see groups of people standing track side its not ussually a good thing and most generally ends up being trouble. [/quote] Who, pray tell, in this entire thread up to the point of your reply, said anything about being vigilantes?  It was simply proposed that those of us who are willing can go out to take some photographs of trains on a certain Saturday during a certain time period, from public property.  How is that being a vigilante?  Nobody's proposing a mass protest where we all trespass on railroad property.  That's absurd. And for that matter, let's just say, Wabash1, that a large group of people did congregate in your neighborhood, on public property, to snap some train photos.  You are going to help the police arrest them, are you?  Good luck.  What would you see?  A buncha law-abiding, tax-payin' guys, standing in a parking lot or on a sidewalk facing the tracks, with cameras around their necks, swappin' stories about trains and railroad history, laughin', jokin', maybe making some new friends in the process, wearing their favorite RR ball caps and many (like me) a few pounds past slim, and you in your sanctimony will volunteer to help the police cuff 'em all and drag them into the pokey?  Uh huh.  Sure you will.  I think you'd be the one who stands a better chance of getting arrested for making a false report because no 911 operator would believe a crime was being committed or even such a group of rail enthusiasts were doing anything suspicious.  Calm down.
