Offence of 'complicity in toking'

Seen in the toilets of a mythic train, the Flying Scotsman.

If you see someone smoking and fail to denounce them to the "Train Guard", you might be prosecuted.

Now my heart-broken thoughts got to the poor CCTV which must feel they are no much use any more, in a society of denunciation.

it's a slang for "smoking", I thought. Bean, am I right? Especially gras... but here you don't even need to smoke that kind of thing to be outlawed.

Oxford Dict.: Toke, n. An inhalation of smoke from a cigarette or pipe containing marijuana or other narcotic substance. V. intr. and trans. To smoke (a marijuana cigarette). Also const. "up". Hence toker.
