I think its worth noting, especially given its been noted elsewhere, that there again seems to have been incidents of people "helping themselves" and letting themselves onto other peoples buses.

If the doors are shut, then take the hint. If it continues, I can completely understand if this becomes a major factor in preservationists desire to attend such events  and unfortunately it gives enthusiasts as a whole a bad name.

In my opinion, we've all got a responsibility to call this behavior out if we see it. Or even better, NEBPT are always looking for volunteers, so please consider volunteering as a steward.

It's ultimately the sort of thing that'll put other people off attending rallies too. 

I'd alluded to it in my previous post and rather naïvely let anger out by throwing a derogatory term the way of those involved, but it's annoying to see people (and companies) have their property completely disrespected. It's by no means the majority of enthusiasts, but as always it's the small minority who will inevitably ruin it all.

I'd think larger companies especially would start to think twice about attending when there's a chance of their assets being damaged while not in service. Then for individuals and preservation groups, I doubt they have huge budgets to be correcting things potentially damaged by folk who aren't taking no for an answer.
