The security at Heworth seem OK with it as of late, and I've not had any grief from them. I was at Gateshead Interchange a number of weeks ago now though, and Dan had barely stepped foot on the pavement, before someone from Nexus was over like a hawk. At the same time though, they're happy enough for smokers to continue, despite all the signs.

I got evil looks from Nexus staff when I was talking some photos by the traffic lights on the other side of the road from Gateshead Interchange a few weeks back, I thought one was even going to cross the road and tell me to stop. Also got looks when I was stood outside the church opposite Park Lane the other week so now I can't be arsed to go anywhere near them anymore because I feel like I am a serious vigilante just for taking some photos of buses and get arrested for accusing me of being a terrorist so now I am currently working on ideas on spots for different shots in Sunderland because I don't want Nexus giving me looks for taking photos of buses leaving their hideous elephant of an interchange.

I think we all want to see Nexus' policy on enthusiasts as so far all we seem to have gotten is "it's illegal" and is it just a bus enthusiast policy or is it a ban on ALL photography because if this is the case I want to see them stop people taking selfies because we aren't allowed to take photos in their bus stations so really no one else should be either as to me it's just generalising a particular type of people which is not fair on us.
