Visiting manners
Stations, platforms and trains are public spaces in daily use. Take photos only where you do not disturb other passengers or staff, and never step beyond platform edges, onto tracks, or into restricted areas. On rural lines and unstaffed stations, buying a ticket or local goods is itself a way to support the line.
