I had a similar idea and found it met with all sorts of negative feedback along the lines of rights and previously tried it.....didn't work then won't work now. My thought was that it could be accessed by, say the police agencies as they do when they run a license plate. It would be in a national registry as in the plate situation and your "I.D. card" would let the police know you were accepted by the railroads as a railfan allowing you to persue your hobby in relative peace. The 'fee' could go to the RR's charity of choice or in a fund for disabled RR workers/families or to fund railfan sites as in Rochelle or some useful thing like that. We are governed by a whole lot more buracracy (sp?) than this in our lives and while I don't like having more red tape or hoops to jump through it sure would save a lot of heartache with the police trying to explain why you are doing what you are doing, I think. But probably won't happen, I suspect.
