There usually is security there. For a while they were asking to see tickets when entering, from the door that goes to Metrolink at least.

Could just do the thing where we paint a bunch of eyes on walls to get the watching-eye effect and get much better ROI.

It shows how futile the gates are. But it didn't happen on the Metrolink platform, so no PR issue for Metro, right?

I took the Amtrak to Chicago yesterday morning and I got a text saying I had to arrive 45 minutes before departure due to new security processes. I ignored it and nothing was different at the station. Thankfully they abandoned this absurd process.

I went to Chicago on Saturday morning. Got the same text (before the city announcement even came out) and nothing was different than normal.

Amtrak is still sending the security time waster text.

Burlington Trailways ending inter-city bus service. Not sure if they still had a stop in STL, their website says they did, but it won't anymore.

Minneapolis-based Jefferson Lines is picking up some of the routes.
