For new kids who try to lay hands on Rail fanning, Railway tracks aren't playgrounds. please take care while doing rail photography n taking videos. Be at least 5 meters away whenever a train passes at high speed. Door plating is highly dangerous but if u wanna do it, make sure u have ur friend beside u.
For...

Folks, Rail Fanning is the most dangerous hobby ever possessed. Never ever do it without a proper guidance or a proper info. Once its possessed, the passion never leaves anyone. its seductive than watching any movie too. So please take care while doing it. Always heed to the seniors who get enough experience doing rail fanning.
