I've read through many of the posts here and may be asking for a thread repeat. I'd like to ask the railroad pros here a couple of questions- 1) In the wake of 9/11 and the Transportation Security Act, have your railroads asked you to do anything differently in terms of security and railfans? 2) Who can we ask for permission to take pictures and get guidelines on what's OK and what's not? (I'm not going to submit photos to TRAINS that would embarass the railroad... or cause loss of face) 3) Other than the obvious common sense rules- don't stand in the middle of the track to take a picture of an oncoming train, don't go onto railroad property without asking permission, and don't climb on equipment- what other general rules of thumb will help make us good neighbors rather than barely tolerated *&$%^ foamers? <br /> <br />I for one carry a badge and gun and ID myself as a cop- which is a distinct advantage over your average John or Jane Doe that happens to like trains as much as I do. <br /> <br />Erik
