Blown out of proportion.
This was in Wareham, not at the canal.

Grade crossing are different. They can't ticket you for crossing the tracks at a grade crossing. They could if you carried your bike over the tracks away from a grade crossing.

That's why this guy got a trespass notice instead of a citation or summons. Trespass notices put you on notice that you were on private property without the consent of the owner, even if the property isn't posted. They can now ticket or even have the guy arrested if they see him do it a second time.

Theoretically, at least, this thread is now one big trespass notice, should the railroad find a way to connect ourselves in person to our screen names

I’ve been on the phone most of the day today about this issue. I had a person from the Safety and transportation divisions of Cape Rail call me this afternoon. We got to talk for a while. They seem to agree that their enforcement person may have a little over on this. They do not want to be tainted with bad press but they do feel the need for additional safety issues. We agreed on a few issues and will talk again I’m sure. They also have some talks scheduled with the Wareham Selectman and town administrator coming up soon and will discuss access areas for their rail system and the potential commuter rail to the area.

%$%$%$%$!!! Now everyone will migrate to the productive spots!


All the clear out around midnight anyway and the train doesn't run after 8 pm anyway. just be smart about where you park.
