I've never seen anyone explain why Railtrack don't claim the
costs. The perpetrator is hardly difficult to identify!


They may not have the witnesses.


What, next to Ely Station? And the whole country is laced with CCTV.
Perhaps they should move the one from the Ely station waiting room
(where it seems to spend most of its time monitoring a pair of very
uncomfortable and empty bench seats) and stick it next to the
bridge...


Yes. look at the road more carefully next time you're in Ely.

My recollection is that it (the crossing) is close to the station, so
moving the CCTV would be quite easy. You wouldn't need an easement on
public land, if that's what you are confirming.

If it was that easy I expect it would have been done long ago.
