I read The Railway Magazine, so I've been following this situation for quite some time. I think that the whole thing is ridiculous! The thing I can't figure out is why they think that people calling in to arrange a time when they will come is going to make things any better. If there was a terrorist that wanted to get pictures of trains and take down loco numbers, why wouldn't he just call in and arrange a time as well? In fact, I think that a terrorist would be even more likely to do so than a railfan. Why go unanounced and risk being arrested when I can phone and have nobody bother me? <br /> <br />A few months ago I read that Virgin welcomed all railfans at their stations, but this may have changed. At least here in North America and Britain we don't have it as bad as they do in France, where the SNCF (the French National Railway) has not only banned all photography from stations, but also lineside as well! Considering that it's the country's only railway, that makes it especially bad for railfans. <br /> <br />I just wi***hat people would try to do something meaningful and intelligent to protect our railways from terrorists instead of pursuing all of this nonsense!
