[QUOTE]Originally posted by Gilbert B Norman: [QB] Being run out of LAUPT is nothing new. I was run out during June 1962 and I had on my person transportation for ATSF #18, Super Chief, that evening. Meanwhile, fast forward to present day. I realize that many fans have invested considerable $$$ in imaging and recording equipment and are fast finding out that amateur photography around any industrial facility is simply a PASTtime (pun quite intentional). Obviously with the many incidents reported at other boards, mostly at Trainorders, the word should be getting t\out that in these times rail photography belonged to another day. Oh the "First Amemdmendtists" will howl (they are quite vocal over at that board I mentioned), but "discouraging' rail photography is simply part of keeping non-fan passengers at ease. The public is being conditioned to "see something, say something' and to a lay person for whom a train is mostly something that delays you at a grade crossing, people standing around taking photos is a'suspicious activity'. I fully expect that ordinances prohibiting the activity to be enacted within jurisdictions, but I'm sure if someone wants to take a photo of Aunt Agnes alighting from the train, nobody will go to jail for that.
