It would be a class 6 felony, which in AZ is probation to 2 years and a maximum fine of $150,000 for the first offense. <br /> <br />I should point out here that the proposed law as written would only apply to yards that are fenced, and are posted with signs stating that trespassing is a felony. So if it passes, railfans would have to watch for the signs and make sure not to trespass in yards so posted, but I don't think it would apply to trespassing on RR property outside of yards. Also, I'm not endorsing trespassing, I just think this is a bad law and overbroad, being passed in the heat of the moment without a lot of thought to the unintended consequences, and it could lead to worse laws in the future.
