Yesterday morning at the train station a few cops were milling around. That was not strange since there has been a "presence" since the London bombings. The train before mine pulled late. That also was not strange since trains often run late. However, it was strange that the conductors brought a few cops on board for a conference. And that everyone on the platform was then told to move away from the train. Then to move across the parking lot (and across the street for good measure). We waited for a few more cop cars to drive by, a few firetrucks to idle by the perimeter. Eventually the K-9 patrol arrived and sniffed no bombs on the train. Then we went on our merry way. No, not merry--weary, scared, and late, actually.
