QUOTE: Originally posted by chewie8han If you were using the walkway bridges, and not just crossing the tracks themselves, you were not in the wrong. The bridges are for pedestrians, and it does not matter if you were taking pictures while you were on them. Courts have decided that individuals do not have a right to privacy while they are in a public place (a train station is definitely a public place). This carries over to anything in the public. As long as you are not trespassing, you are allowed to take pictures. What you aren't allowed to do, is then sell your photos, making money off of any individual's image without their concent. This also applies to any copy protected device, machine, etc. Kevni

Life is simple - eat, drink, play with trains!
