The forum cannot be held liable for any advice given by any forum member, and none of the advice given on this forum can be considered legal advice. If you are threatened with prosecution you may wish to seek the advice of a solicitor.
In addition, please avoid using three letter codes in thread titles or where you haven't mentioned the station before. Their use is acceptable for follow-ups where you use the correct CRS code (eg: BNS is Barnes, BHM is Birmingham New Street; LLS is neither Liverpool Lime Street [LIV], nor London Liverpool Street [LST], but Llanishen).
