Re: The UP Police at the Davis Amtrak Station on Friday Nights

UP has proposed putting up a fence between its ROW and the burbs on the east side of Davis. The city/county has tried to stop them from doing so because it will create "apartheid" in their snug little community. Since the trespassers seem to have no qualms about breaking the law now (signs posted everywhere) I'm not sure what a fence might be able to do, but UP claims it's a safety issue and there are a few deaths on the tracks to show that.

The alternative is to build a walkover similar to other Amtrak stations. Had the city/county been on the ball this could have been an easy "shovel ready" ARRA project, but they didn't even suggest it and now there's no dough to do it.

Why do you folks get down on the RR for trying to put safety first? Just don't like RR dicks?
