Posted by Michael549 on Thu Feb 21 12:36:29 2008, in response to Re: ROBBED BY A COP— AGAIN!, posted by BrooklynBus on Thu Feb 21 10:44:54 2008. From a previous message: "In particular, I'm wondering why you are not allowed on the platform unless you have a ticket (waiting for a train) or had just gotten off. Sounds like the intention is that after getting off, you are not allowed to linger on the platform for any other purpose. That makes it sound like you may need special permission for photography although the act itself may not specifically be banned."I am not commenting on the photography issue, even though it happens to be fascinating area of discussion. I am wondering about the issues of loitering and crowd-control as the reasons why such rules were created. A while ago the MTA at Grand Central station had a problem with homeless persons at the station, and this could be a way to clear the terminal of un-wanted persons. Such rules may have had nothing to do with photographers, but to instill the idea that the terminal is for train travelers, not those who are there for other purposes. Again that is a guess on my part, and not a reflection on photographers or there actions. Mike |
