The other factor here is tourism. NYC is looking for tourist dollars. Has anyone noticed the irony that NYCT is running vintage trains on weekends between now and Christmas as a tourist attraction? (Oh, and if it works, will this be a regular seasonal event?) Don’t Dick and Jane from Iowa want their picture taken on the “cute, old train”?


I *have* given thought to this.
But boloney is cut one slice at a time.

If they can agree to letting the Transit Museum handling the permits,
then we can cut another slice.

I suggested a guide book for photographers.
People could buy this book for say $10.00,
It might have some hints about taking photos in the subways,
It might also point out several good "Photo Spots"
The last page is a photo permit good for 10 days.

"Just step over there to that nice police officer, and he will validate it for you."

and

"just let me staple this permit to your camera strap... There you go!... Have a nice visit to our city."
