By federal law, it is trespassing.<br /><br />Now if you were merrily walking along and crossing the tracks on a public roadway, and if a penny “accidentally fell out” of the hole in your pants’ pocket, then that is another matter.<br /><br />Some stations have a single platform while some have multiple platforms with a pedestrian crossing. A single platform would require the penny to somehow land or roll from the platform down to the rail by itself without a human reaching down. The pedestrian crossing would be the same situation as a roadway crossing.<br /><br />With so many cell phone cameras and more security cameras, be wary that should you be caught on camera, the railroad 1. may have a Public Affairs or Friends of the Railroad Facebook-like Railfan group which films, monitors, and reports trespassing and road traffic incursions and 2. may use this to either defend itself in a lawsuit or prosecute repeat offenders for fear of being accused of not preventing one (or more) potentially dangerous situation(s).Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13571360214261086267noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3397143776408619997.post-33896442341504408482019-06-25T12:20:58.569-07:002019-06-25T12:20:58.569-07:00That is a very frowned upon practice and possibly ...That is a very frowned upon practice and possibly illegal and dangerous for the train, passengers and the person placing the pennies on the tracks. I am surprised anyone would still be doing this.Blondie63https://www.blogger.com/profile/10253488546833735495noreply@blogger.com
