A stretch of railroad track between Manassas and Fairfax County had the second-highest number of reported trespassers in Virginia last year.

Today, police from Norfolk-Southern Railway and Manassas police officers were out in force walking along the tracks in Downtown Manassas. The mission: bring attention to a new stepped-up enforcement campaign aimed at keeping people off the tracks or walking alongside them.
