"Hey Railfan, Are you a Terrorist?"

Skip Waters of Dallas, TX returns again as your host for the Lets Talk Trains show. The topic is "Hey Railfan, Are you a Terrorist?" Skip will discuss the current state of affairs surrounding railfans and photography. What do the railroads and the public think of railfans shooting trains? Joining Skip will be Richard Whitenight who in 2002 was reported in the Washington Post as being grilled by the terrorism task force. Richard will tell us what happened. Then we will hear a recent video recording of a shortline railroad accusing some local railfans as being terrorists. Followed by a current Special Agent letting us know how the railroad feels about railfans and photography in today's environment. Callers are welcome to join. Tune in and find out if you are a terrorist! Program note: The Special Agent was unable to join us, instead Ken Fitzgerald of Fort Worth and surprise call from Steve Barry, Editor of Railfan & Railroad magazine gave us a balance approach to railfanning safely in a terrorist world. We close out the show signing up for a BNSF's Citizens for Rail Security card on the air. Listen in!
