I wish this report was more clear about what time of night this happened, whether during commute hours or later.[/quote]

NP. Totally agree, and NBC4 should know better and should have given the time, which entrance as well. While unfortunately this could have happened even at noon these days, it does help set context to know if it was noon, or 7 p.m., or midnight etc.

We just had a friend of college DD visit us over the holidays and friend took the train to and from Union Station. I was OK sending DD in there solo without a thought for a 7 a.m. pickup while I stayed in the car outiside, but am now glad my DH went in with them when we were dropping off the friend for a late night train. Good grief.

I have lived here a long time and used to take trains a LOT, and remember the huge overhaul of the moribund Union Station back in, I think, the 80s? It was such a huge improvement. The way it's gone downhill is sad. Maybe once it's renovated, actual functioning security can be part of the deal. Maybe. I'm not awfully hopeful, though. [/quote]
