APD does more than law enforcement. My elderly father missed his connection in WAS and somehow ended up in Baltimore. APD let him wait in their office for the next train to Boston. A sergeant walked dad to the platform and helped him board the train. Norfolk Southern railpigs could take a lesson or 2 from APD.

I know right, damn those evil photographers. LOL JK Metra Employees that aren't even police seem to think they are cops. The weird thing is that Metra as a company actually encourages photographers because we're free surveillance for the stations.

Skip Gibson You're a Amtrak cop? If so, do all Amtrak employees get free train rides and since Amtrak is all over the country, is it easy to transfer to work in another city?
@skips3768 жыл бұрын
Hi Dodger! I'm a retired Amtrak Cop with 33 years service. I worked in the Northeast where trains run nearly constantly versus other parts of the country. I rode trains on duty between Boston and New York and parts in between. Yes you and your family are given passes to ride Amtrak Trains although I rarely ever used mine. Transfers are fairly easy but you need to make contacts to. Plus everything is Seniority, which builds up over time. You get great training and have opportunities to do every aspect of police work.

What retirement benefits is there and is there a age restriction to be hired ? . ie ; Federal Law Enforcement Officers must not be past the age of 37 due to the mandatory retirement age of 57.

great job it seems as memory does not recall a single huge law enforcement event on the rails, plenty of seedy transients using the observation car as a bunkhouse at night, and the conductors appeared to be in on the deal, yes, all that is true, so sad, to borrow a phrase

It is in my opinion a shame that it took 9-11 for this Department to upgrade to where it is today. In the 1980's, I seriously considered joining APD, but found it unchallenging and rather operating in the past. Low wages and a sense that the role of the APD Officer at least in Los Angeles was clout of step with the rest of the law enforcement community. I envy what you do now, stay safe.

A Minnesota man who was shot by an Amtrak police officer on Wednesday is paralyzed and clinging to life at Stroger Hospital, his sister said Friday. Chad Robertson has a bullet lodged near his spine after he was shot Wednesday while running from Amtrak officers about a block south of Union Station, said his sister, Nina Robertson. Nina Robertson and her family’s lawyer both say Chad Robertson, a 25-year-old father of two, was unarmed. Authorities have not recovered a weapon from the scene.
