<p>[quote user="CNW 6000"]There's a County Deputy in Winnebago County, WI that is a railfan. He found me once when I was trackside. I saw a car approaching from behind me, lights went on (red/blue). He stopped, got out and walked to my truck. "Stealing my railfanning spot?" he asked me.[/quote] </p><p>Well, that's one less cop to harass you about taking photos of trains... [swg]</p><p>I used to be a safe foamer. I wouldn't trespass or be at all unsafe, but I'd go for the camera every time I saw a train. </p><p>Now I'm just a railfan. I still photograph trains, and carry a camera everywhere just in case, but if there's a choice between taking a lousy grab shot that doesn't even show the whole train and is unusable anywhere of a boring train (<a href="http://www.rrpicturearchives.net/showPicture.aspx?id=1551823">example</a>) or just watching it pass, I'll leave the camera in its bag... <br></p>
