Acutally, More often than not those vandals and thieves happen to be "railfans". It is very unfortunate but true. A few examples would be residents' property being trespassed and littered on (Kodakrome boxes) along parts of Cajon Pass and other popular areas, builders plates and other items being removed from active locomotives, items removed from depots, locos, cabooses, etc... I could go on. A few bad apples giving all "railfans" a bad rep. I for one can understand why RR's do not want anyone wandering on and off property. Liability is the other big problem. In this lawsuit-happy world we live in, every time someone gets hurt they try to blame it on someone else, even when they were at fault themselves in the first place. It ends up costing the innocent parties (RR's in this case) unnecessary expenses win or loose. <br />If you eant to do it right, check in and sign a release form amd use common sense and discresion when on the property. If they decline permission to enter their property, honor their wishes. Remember, RR property is private property. If you enter without permission, you are trespassing, period.
