he MBTA now allows personal photography without a permit

Heard this morning that the MBTA will no longer require permits for those who wish to take photos on their property.

A few things to remember:

1. This policy does not apply to video/film recording, or commercial photography - which still requires a special permit.
2. You need to carry a valid Photo ID with you at all times and present it upon request.
3. Flash photography is still prohibited
4. The use of floodlights is still prohibited
5. The use of tripods is still prohibited
6. Trespassing into restricted areas to take photos is still a really bad idea that will get you arrested (if you don't get yourself killed, first)

The news is going to take some time to filter down to every MBTA employee, so you might want to put off your photo taking for a few days until the word gets out to avoid any unneeded hassles.
