I had a similar experience at Tri-Rail station in West Palm Beach last June. I had my five year old son with me and we had taken the train from Ft. Lauderdale to West Palm. While waiting a the Ft. L station, a grandfather with his grandson was taking pictures of the arriving and departing trains and the local Wackenhut guy even posed for one of the photos. But after we arrived in West Palm a Tri-Rail employee accosted me while I was taking a few more photos of the locomotive and the old station with its cypress wood platform. She told me that taking photos was "against the law since 9-11" and that she had been directed to call the police. Well...I talked her out of it and did quite a bit of research afterward before learning (of course) that there is no such law. Apparently, though, the Wackenhut folks are still using this tactic. <br /> <br />FL Boy
