Interesting conversation with Amtrak PD officer

I was taking an Amtrak train from Philadelphia's 30th Street Station and I had some time to kill. I greeted an APD officer and asked if he had a minute to chat. When he said yes, I asked him to clarify Amtrak's policy on carrying in their stations.He said carrying on the premises was prohibited by their policies, even if you were simply taking a local train that discharged at 30th Street. He said, while rolling his eyes slightly, that even he and his colleagues were unable to carry (off-duty) on Amtrak property or trains. I asked about LEOSA protection and he said sure, it applies to him once he gets where he's going, but he would lose his job if caught carrying a private weapon on a train or in an Amtrak station while off-duty.He ended the conversation by saying, "I'm sure you've heard this before, but just don't be stupid and you'll be fine."So in a state like Pennsylvania where private property weapon policies do not carry the force of law, one is not committing a crime until an employee asks you to leave and you then refuse. Even then, you're only committing a criminal trespass, not any kind of weapons violation. Amtrak is known in many ways to be a "pseudo federal" organization. Would it be considered federal property in terms of the legal prohibition against carrying concealed like at a US Post Office? via /r/CCW http://ift.tt/2jYh8ac
