This subject has come up on threads in the past, when "hunting along RR tracks" was discussed. Someone will chime in that they are private property. While this is technically true, yet .... it amazes me that as kids, who among us didn't wander the RR tracks. Or put a penny on the tracks for a train to crush.
So let's have a show of hands here: "Who has been charged with legal action , for ... gasp ... being near RR tracks ?"
If there ever was someone "charged" for such an egregious thing, it would be someone being obstinate, can't take a warning, or is in some way being a giant bullseye for attention. Otherwise .... let's be real : Since when hasn't common man not walked along RR tracks ? Why is md'ing so evil that it's somehow different then ?
