I've dealt with railroad cops/station security twice, both on a trip to NYC.The station security guy saw me taking photos of the restored New Haven Union Station from inside and politely informed me that no photographs were allowed inside for security reasons. I told him that I understood and asked if the platforms were fair game for photography. He said that was fine, and wished me a good day as he walked off.The second was the New Jersey Transit police, who got a tip-off about someone (me) <a href="http://www.rrpicturearchives.net/showPicture.aspx?id=1582847" mce_href="http://www.rrpicturearchives.net/showPicture.aspx?id=1582847">taking photos</a> of Amtrak's DOCK lift bridge from a sidewalk in Newark. They were both very polite and said right up front that what I was doing was perfectly legal, and residents only saw the camera and automatically thought "Terrorist! Bomb! Aaaaah!" and called the cops.I think it's getting much better since the days of Metra's arrests...
