A man has been placed on the sex offender register after pleading guilty to four counts of indecent exposure.
Terry Emberson, of no fixed abode, appeared St Albans Crown Court for a pre-trial hearing yesterday, Wednesday, after being arrested and charged last month.
The 47-year-old initially pleaded not guilty to all four counts, which relate to indecent acts at Stevenage and Welwyn Garden City stations on July 19.
A 17-year-old girl was flashed at on a platform by Emberson, before a woman in her 60s and her 11-year-old granddaaughter were targeted while on a train heading to Peterborough.
He was charged following a British Transport Police appeal published by the Comet on August 14, when CCTV images were released.
PC Alexei Bobkov from BTP, who is leading the investigation, said: “I would like to thank the members of the public who came forward with information and the local media for their assistance.”
Emberson has been remanded in custody and is due for sentencing on September 24.
