Photography underground

If you go into 'Ask Tube' and search on the word 'photography', it reads
as
follows:
Q. Do I need permission to film or take photographs on the tube?
A. You may take personal photographs on the Tube, but you MUST NOT use
flash.
For information on filming or taking professional photographs on the tube,
please [click here]
(the link takes you to the commercial filming section linked earlier) I
think its about time somone much more interested in photography than me
tried to get them to change the website.

Still, if this very indirect way of informing is the level of clarity the HQ
offers, I am not surprised that Underground staff may be unsure and
overreact. I was recently asked by a station staff member for a written
permission when I photographed the *outside* of a surface station building,
*from the public road*. He claimed no London Underground objects may be
photographed without such a permission. When I doubted his statement, he
withdrew into his office and said he would call the police. He never did.
The location: Roding Valley...
