Western Railroad Discussion > In the public eye: ABC News and NUMB3RS

Tonight ABC News did a piece on the proposed subway photography ban in NYC. Mostly from an artist's perspective, they did have a terrorism expert say it is just another one of those "feel good do nothing" ideas that seem to be the order of the day.

The CBS show NUMB3RS has railroad accident investigation as its theme this Friday February 25. God, I hope the perp isn't a railfan.....

I was on the show and it does not involve a railfan. Not allowed to say more.

I just saw the piece. Which one were you?? It was filmed in New York. Why can't you say more? What's the big deal?
C.

I should have been more specific. I was on the NUMB3RS show, not the new york piece. The NUMB3RS episode was filmed in Southern California last November.

It's not fair to folks who watch the show to give away the story. Knowing who the bad guy is spoils the fun.

The reporter stated that the FBI terrorist expert had talked to El Queda members and that there are 11,000 photos on the Internet of Subways. In other words, legislation isn't going to stop photos that already exist in the thousands. I take it the reporter also meant that such legislation is point less.

not only that, but I imagine you probably got paid for the job, and they
probably wouldn't take too kindly to you posting spoilers on internet sites ;^)
