The most common problem I've found is that staff tend to shout "no
photographs" etc and refuse to believe that non-commercial photography is allowed. If you then refer them to "Standard Sa109" of the LU Working Manual, they then seem to take offence at being proved wrong, or exposed as liars, and then change tack by saying that you must now leave the station because you're creating a nuisance, when of course it is them who are doing the hassling! Also I've found that by refering to official entries both in the Working Manual and Traffic Crcular, this often brings the response "Are you staff? You should know better! Why haven't you signed in?". "Because I'm not on duty and have no more rights than an ordinary passenger" I reply, to which they they counter with "Well then you've no right to take photographs" and so it goes around in circles... I was prepared to take a concilitory approach immediately after 7/7 because many Londoners, including LU staff, were traumatised to a greater or lesser degree but enough is enough! Network Rail's website welcomes enthuisasts at its stations, New York lifted its post 9/11 ban on Subway photography. Maybe I'll stop photographing LU when they stop filming me in every ticket hall, on every platform, in increasing number of cars, and tracking me 24/7 by Oyster!!! |
