If, and only if Chicago is like Dallas as far as the transit cops go, then they have just as much power as the sheriff officers do.  What you are talking about doing is going to have you put in jail.  I can remeber the BNSF having all cab drivers report anyone on the bridges over Galesburg yard right after 911.  If you want to act like a mob, then fine but you are your mob friends will get your self arrested.  I am sure the Chicago Transit police have plenty of people to take you on.  Instead of acting like a kid about it, why dont you call Metra, and tell them that you would like to come out and take some photos.  I am sure they would be happy to assist you in that way.  I know here on the DART rail we have signs posted at just about every station, or at least 2 stations that I know of that say no photgraphs without permission.  These signs are at Mockingbird Station before the tunnel, and at City Place Station inside the tunnel.  So many things changed right after 911 and there is still a threat to our commuter and light rail lines.  If you have a problem with the ways things are run then why dont you go to the council meeting and state your opinion.  Other wise I hope that if you have a job your boss understands why you are spending the night in Jail for something that is very simple.
