It's trespassing to take pictures, or otherwise occupy space from on the right-of-way, or the tracks. That area is private property of the railroad company.

Sorry, not here ---- Alabama has no trespass regulations or laws specifically targeted to railroadproperty. However, a person is guilty of criminal trespass in the second degree if he knowingly enters or remains unlawfully in a building or upon real property which is fenced or enclosed in a manner designed to exclude intruders. Michigan apparently does, PA is also like the many that don't. http://www.atdlines.com/pdf/cross-ch9.pdf Part of it may depend on who owns the land the tracks are on. Here most of the tracks are on easements.

Hmmm...I will make it my mission to take a photo of the sign saying " Keep Out or Go To Jail " ( not literally those words but to that effect ) along one section of rail here. The last time I saw it, another rail company leased the rails. Norfolk Southern now owns the lease ( the same company, I believe, that is running in your pics Smoke ).

I try to be a man of my word, so here is the sign from the spot I was talking about. As I said earlier in this thread, Norfolk Southern leases the tracks now. The previous company was Canadian Pacific ( I do believe ), and the sign was a little different.

@Dean_Gretsch no signs here. People walk the tracks, hunt along, etc. Fenced rail yards are a different story.

This stretch of track runs between the Susquehanna River and a ridgeline of hills eventually passing through a state correctional facility property a couple miles away. The SCR probably has something to do with this sign, but you'd think it would be mentioned?
