BTP are aware there has been some discussion in the media recently about people watching pornography on public transport and whether transport groups or the police can do anything about this.
If you feel uncomfortable or distressed by someone who is looking at pornography on the railway, we want you to report it to us.
There is various legislation which could potentially be used to prosecute this behaviour in some circumstances, including railway byelaws or Section 5 of the Public Order Act for causing harassment, alarm or distress.
You can use our discreet texting service - the number is 61016 - to report what is happening without those nearby overhearing, if this makes you feel more comfortable.
Our officers have a range of investigative techniques to identify offenders who commit crimes on the railway network, so just because someone has left the train, this by no means makes them untraceable.
Remember, you do not have to prove that someone is committing a crime in order to report it – Report it to Stop it.
