Has any one been by Abrams Yard lately? I have, yesterday on my way to work, I had to get fuel and figured a detour pass Abrams seemed apropriate. I was disapointed when I drove past when I saw that sitting where I normaly park my car to watch the trains being assembled was now a bunch of concrete blocks with "No Parking" spraypainted on it. It made me mad and I was fuming about it to my co workers all day. You think they would stop confusing us railfans for terrorists by now.

What it does have to do with though is the fact that parking where you have been is TRESPASSING! In case you have not noticed, you were parking behind the yard sign and on railroad property in a location that is un-safe and could have possibly gotten yourself or someone else hurt. This has nothing to do with anything more than safety and private property. I see absolutely no reason to get mad over this since you can still watch from a safe and legal location from across the street on the sidewalk. I hope that one day some people realize that just because they are "railfans" does not give them the right to trespass on railroad property.
