I read this story the other day and found it baffling.
It started off suggesting trainspotting was now illegal in the headline, went on to say National Express would ban spotters at a handful of stations, then NE went on to say the story was nonsense at the end, except perhaps the concept of getting a "platform ticket" and "enthusiasts are welcome" - which is basically making a mountain out of a molehill?
I don't think NXEC are the most enthusiast friendly company though. They tried with Tornado, but ended up shooting themselves in the foot by trying to ban spotters when it arrived at one of their stations! They then backtracked quite quickly when they realised that everyone and the local vicar was going to crucify them for it.
I think they're just repeating history.
Madness.
