I agree..It sounds like just another hobby or an extension of railfanning..Not to mention the cost of all the stuff you need to just get started..WOW ! The way it sounds you are able to see only whats in an immediate area of your location and read train orders sent to crewmen in locos equipt with mdt's..Just like the police have...
I finally found the time to join the group and get started. Amazing! This will definitely make me get out and railfan more. I'll be able to pick my spots and improve my yield.
Don't really see any security issues since there is no train ID info provided - only route and signal indications along with occupancy. No way for anybody to tie commodity info, if they managed to get that, to a particular occupancy indication.
