[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What is happening with Union Station these days? As an undergrad, I used to hang out there all the time before taking the train to UVa and never felt unsafe. Are people actually getting harassed and/or mugged INSIDE the station?[/quote] Yes. Including on the metro platform and metro trains. OD's in the station too. OP, have her walk directly to the taxi line with the crowd. That is the safest option and will not involve waiting. There have been quite a few violent incidents on Metro recently at much more heavily used hours. No way would I have someone from out of town take 2 different lines at that hour. And then what at the other end? Far safer to walk to the line of waiting taxis and go door to door. Tell her to use the restroom on the train if needed, it is not an option in the station. [/quote]
