AHA!!!!!!

There is the word! Trespassing!
If a person is on a platform with a legitamate ticket, or on a public
overbridge then a person is not trespassing. So a person with a camera on a
platform should be treated the same way as any passenger.
Pity that in NSW they dont treat passengers all that well either . .

Your not wrong there. But usually those people dont carry cameras, and
anyone near the rails is a suspect. The only way they will prevent that is
to fence off everything including platforms.
