a 37-year-old website designer from Bournemouth, who has been train spotting for 20 years, says he has been asked a couple of times in the past few weeks to move from platforms at King's Cross

Hang on a feckin minute - Who decided to take up trainspotting at the age of 17?

As if you're not too busy with underage drinking and self-abuse at that age. Wierdo!!

BTW weirdest of all are the bus-spotters in Glasgow - saw a load of them on Union Street one night.

Maybe he packed explosives in one of those chins.

Gotta love the yanks "But a meeting of US security officials in Washington in March reportedly classified "people sitting on train platforms who appear to be monitoring the timing of arrivals and departures" as suspicious behaviour. "
So basically that's ALL passengers at a train station. Dees is tha ENEMEES of freedom we must stop dem.

I took up Trainspotting at the age of 9, with my Ian Allen GWR Locomotive Register.

And Buses, they are always worth a close look, I actually saw an RT AND a RTL on the same day recently. Most of the RT's were replaced by TrolleyBuses, & then the RM took over.
