I had no problems when I was in New York last month. Come to think of it, the last times I had anyone tell me no photos was in May of last year. In London, a station employee on the opposite platform said photography was illegal. I apologized, walked to the far end of the platform, and proceeded to photograph from there. (I also had at least one instance where an employee came up to me and asked to make sure my flash was turned off but said that my photography was legal, and other posters on here have reported similar incidents.) A few weeks earlier, in Rome, a security guard told me that photography was illegal, so I apologized, told him I wouldn't take any more photos, and went on my way. Turned out those would be my last photos of the day, not because he told me photography was illegal, but because I was done railfanning for the day before he stopped me and just continued with my plan to get back to my place. |
