Well I saw some respones to my post. Trash and debris-- I have been a railfan for long enough (30+0 years to tell the difference between the tra***hat is dumped by idiots on RR property and RR trash- Im talking about ripped out ties that lay for years, sections of rail cut out and dumped on the roadside, as signal crossing arm and lights replaced and the parts just dumped on the side of the street- these have been there for 6 months in a residentual neighborhood. Actually in our town we have almost none of the sofas, tires, etc )(thankfully) but I have seen them elsewhere. <br /> <br />In a way its beside the point, no matter how trah gets there propert owners have obligatins to maintain their property. RR's dont. <br /> <br />As for calling them, if you read what I said. I hade to threaten an action to get them to return a call- not one responder commented on the fact that retturning phone calls is a proper business practice that RR's fail in.(im not stupid enough to actually damage their property-- but I did get a response) <br /> <br />Finally, when the fed's adopt all the other regulations that cost the RR's big money, the RR's cant turn out any support because they dont cultivate any support. It doesn't have to be a TV ad- it has to be respect for the communities they pass through.
