The reaon for this reminder is illustrated in the letter broadcast to members of the Stratford & Midland Junction Railway site, following a complaint.....


"A reminder!

Dear SMJ Society member

I am writing to you to inform you that we have received a complaint about photos of the brickyard quarry near Towcester, obtained illegally through trespass.

As co-owner and editor of the website and society, I am writing to you to remind you that the SMJ Society does not promote nor condone trespass and if we receive a complaint about images being obtained illegally through trespass, we will consider it our duty to take action and remove them. Our society is a small, free to join society whose intention is to bring together like minded people to promote, document and retain the memory of The Stratford Upon Avon & Midland Junction Railway, legally, peacefully and without offence.

 

I’m sure that you all will bear this in mind on your next photographic trip along the line.

Yours

Andy Thompson

Co-Owner, Editor, IT Manager of The SMJ Society
