Yes, that is the property of the railroad, you had no business on the property. If you got stuck on the track, you must have been horse playing around on the tracks in a vehicle, so , yes, you were trespassing. They do not have to warn of dangerous hazzards like this because, they expect that people with any common sense knows, you do not play on the railroad tracks, especially with vehicles. Pay the ticket, grow up and use this as a learning experience about other peoples property.

A railroad track IS a sign of a dangerous hazard. A train goes through that way, and it can't very well go around you. Train tracks and the land along them are also private property. I don't think you have a leg to stand on here.

I am not a lawyer, and I don't live in Nevada, but if I was on a jury I would think that when you were driving on the tracks you knew you were where you shouldn't be. Sometimes when you play, you gotta pay. Pay the fine and learn from it.

Since they gave you gave you a ticket for trespassing, I assume then that you have a court date. Go to court, plead innocent and explain to the judge that you did not see any signs that said NO Trespassing. The judge will know the law and will either fine you or let you go. Even if he determines that you should have known that you were not supposed to be there, he might let you go anyway.

its kinda like if the gate to someones backyard was open, and it didnt have any signs. you are still there. It is still trespassing.
