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.
This happened outside, but still seems relevant:

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.

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.
