[talk-au] "Illegal", & "asked to be closed" tracks?

[Warin]

Illegally constructed ... who says?


Never mind.


The land owner/controller would be the one to contact.


Ask about access in general terms - everyone, private, permissive..


The method of transportation over the track is a separate issue ...

There maybe access considerations for them too .. but again not about 
the physical properties .. but the permissions.
