fans out there, and have always asked permission to occupy the
property. Although permission was never denied, it was granted very
begrudgingly, and not very politely. I guess they took on the attitude
of the idiot brethren we have that ruined the whole thing in the first
place."

I've made the trip to Hoolihan Curve- Edelstein about 12 times since
getting interested in train photography and I've never seen anyone do
something stupid. That's not to say somebody hasn't done something
stupid, just that I think it's a very small minority. Most of the dumb
stuff I've seen is the aftermath of highschool aged beer parties and not
railfans.
I think the real problem here is that those people get frustrated
and unsettled by having 1-7 cars parked along side the gravel road.
They live in a rural setting and their sense of privacy has been
threatened. I think the fence is silly and spiteful and a sign that
they've lost perspective. If any of you are looking for a
bed-n-breakfast place this would be the property to buy.
