I don't think they would arrest them, but they would get a hefty fine. On another note, a Policeman could not go on Railroad property till a few years ago. The railroads had their own police to handle their own situations, but they decided they could cut back staff and save a few bucks, and cover alot more ground, so they asked for the help of all Law Officers, so now anyone with a Badge can write you a ticket ( yes even a Game Warden ). While working nights on the railroad, we had a shooter run into the rail yards, and the local police could not ensue till the BN officer arrived (because of train movement and safety reasons ).Even if you run, they might still catch you, all lead engines have built-in Cameras on them now (all class I railroads by law ). I have a retired cousin in Chicago that worked for the railroad retirement board, him and his wife were on lunch hour while waiting for flashing lights at a pedestrian crossing, the train went by so they took off walking before the lights quit. They were fined $500.00 each for leaving early, pretty costly lunch. It also makes it tuff to hunt out here, our farm was adjecent to the tracks, we hunted the right of ways all the time, walking the tracks, a game warden couldn't do anything. ( Times have changed )

If that doesn't make one want to come and see where the Beatles are from, nothing will. Well put together, subjects, lighting, angles, shadows, reflections, very impressive. Great video Brian, Thanks for sharing.......Looks like it took many hours of work to put together..... maybe could have used a little "Ferry Across the Mersey" in the back ground....

I don't usually get involved in these discussions but this one caught my attention.This will be interesting to watch. My son helped build the Two Rivers Detention Center in Hardin, Montana. He was on the project from beginning to end. The facility was built in 2007, and never opened the doors. There has been one employee at the facility since being built. He flushes the toilets everyday, and runs water in the sinks, and washes and folds the prison uniforms once in a while, to keep them fresh. The Texas investers thought once they built it, the state would automaticly lease it because they were short on prison cells. One can read all about it at ( Two Rivers Detention Center ) doors are still locked 10 years later......I think the investors found out Montana is only going to pay so much a day per prisoner, and it wasn't enough....

The wild eyed right wingers thought Obama was building internment camps for them.

He wasn't; but Trump and his rich buddies have a plan.

People wonder why the U.S. has one of the highest incarceration rates in the world; it's called PROFIT.

Prisons turn a high profit on real-estate.:

" Private prison companies, which stand to make big gains under President Trump’s tough new immigration orders, also have contributed big sums to pro-Trump groups, including the organization that raised a record $100 million for his inauguration last month.

GEO Group, one of the nation’s largest for-profit prison operators, donated $250,000 to support Trump’s inaugural festivities, Pablo Paez, the company’s vice president of corporate relations, told USA TODAY.

That’s on top of the $225,000 that a company subsidiary donated to a super PAC that spent some $22 million to help elect the real-estate magnate. Another prison operator, CoreCivic, gave $250,000 to support Trump’s inauguration, recently filed congressional reports show."

Beautiful work guys, looks like your husband is as talented as you are. I could see the French Doors coming, I just didn't know what was on the other side. It will make a great entrance for the studio, along with great lighting. Nice video.....

Most people are in such awe, of the falls, they forget to look around them. If you are at Artists Point taking pictures, be sure to look across the valley at all the sulfur colors coming out of the sides of the hills. If you like, I could show you a picture of what people miss.

We have train loads of the propellers going thru here, last one I inspected was 154 feet long. The railcars are 90 feet alone, ( takes two cars for one propeller ) and they have stantions or uprights that hold the propellers from sticking out and hitting the signals when going around the spirals ( curves ). Saw a semi pull off for a rest area with a prop, the rest area was on the other side of the interstate, when he realized he couldn't make the turn, he had to back-up the off ramp. Lucky he had a pilot car to the rear, but it still took some time to do....wondered if he ever made it to a rest area. I heard they cost 4 million apiece to put up....takes alot of fresh air to pay that back...Nice pics Paul
