Years ago I used to haul piggyback trailers out of N&S & most railyards in Chicago . The railroad police were very good to me , Most of my movements were at night . I could write a book with all of the things that went on in those hours, daytime also. When you see what they have to go through sometimes. It'll amaze you. Not knowing who they were dealing with, they have to treat everyone with caution & as if you were up to no good. . Those officers are there for a reason & are following orders from the railroad. If they don't do their job , Then it's the unemployment line for them . I do agree with you folks though , "It sucks"...... we realy can not railfan like we used to. PS; I'm on both sides of the fence on this issue, I have tracks that border my property & I do walk their property also. With extream caution................But i'm wrong for doing it too . Kind of a devil on one shoulder & an angel on the other senario. PSS; Try to look at it in their perspective , After 9-11 things have changed for good. We are living in another era now & just have to deal with it. Like you folks, I too miss alot on how things used to be.............. " THINGS CHANGE" ........ & not always for the better...............& I do not intend to offend anyone with my opinions so I appologise if I hurt anyones feelings or ruffled anyones feathers. Welcome to the 21st century. "WHAT NEXT "?
