The same thing happened to me twice last year.Once I was at the 125th St Station of Metro North, and 2 MTA Cops came over to me, and asked what I was doing. I told him that I was a railfan, just got off the train from Marble Hill, and was shooting videos as my hobby. I told him in 50 years nobody has ever stopped me. He said that some of the employees aboard the trains felt uncomfortable.I asked him since when is it against the law, he said it wasn't but he saw the videos and said ok, In 20 minutes he came back, and I told him I was leaving. A few months later I was at Harrison on PATH and a PATH Motorman, said I am not allowed to take pictures, I asked since when, but he left. 5 minutes later (It was rush hours) 2 PA Cops got off the next train and I asked them the same question, since when is it against the law, and they said it was not, but against the rules. I was not going to argue with them, so I left.since I only had a 4 hour layover at EWR between flights. I have been taking pictures at both places since I was a kid in the 50s and this never happened before. What ever happened to freedom of the press. Maybe unde Obama, things will change |
