Ross McMullin, President & CEO
A Message for the High School Yearbook Advisor… Brought to you by: Did you know… That posing on railroad tracks for photographs is trespassing?
Trespassing on railroad rights-of-way is DANGEROUS and very illegal. Facts about trains and railroad tracks: Trains can’t stop quickly to avoid people or vehicles on the tracks.
An optical illusion makes it hard to determine a train's distance and speed.
The average train overhangs the tracks by at least three feet.
Railroad tracks, trestles, yards and rights-of-way are private property.
No tracks should ever be assumed to be abandoned or inactive. Students will use other students’ photos as inspiration for their own shoots. Julie La Combe, Executive Director P. O. Box 474 PH 785-806-8801 Abilene, Kansas 67410 EM [email protected] W www.ksoli.org
At Kansas Operation Lifesaver, we STRONGLY ENCOURAGE you to exercise your right not to publish photos of illegal activity, Please don’t use senior portraits where a student is posing on railroad property.
