Seems that Commuter passengers should have the same rights as Amtrak Passengers or should they

Dear Mr Jones,

I am have been refered to you from Raymond Diggs,My concern is that I come into Boston about 12 times a year to do buisness and shopping. More often then not I miss the last train and have to sit in South Station or North Station late night a couple of hours for next train in the morning to retearn to Worcester or Fitchburg.My concern is that Amtrak Passengers can sit with a ticket But MBTA passengers are evicted from the terminal even if they have a ticket. I am being evicted by Amtrak Police and I have been told by them if I buy a AMTRAK ticket for 15.00 to worchester i can sit there but if i have a 6.00 MBTA ticket out the door into the cold i go. I have found a all night diner near south station but I certainly dont feel comfortable in boston late night because of crime and what not. Can you rectify this?
