I was just thinking of 3 ways to reduce vandalism and was wondering
of the practicality.
1) Link the on Board CCTV cameras to a
central control room with controls such as on train PA use (like
Scotrail's remote Announcments) 2) Have another person on the train
who can watch the cameras, provide information and check tickets.
3) Probably not a very good idea, but do as they do in New York and
sometimes in Bristol. Use the older vehicles at night and save the
better ones for the day.


Part of the answer has to be to get the police to accept that it is
part of their job to police stations and trains, JUST LIKE ANY OTHER
PUBLIC SPACE.

Nah, you need more frequent and faster trains with no obligation to brake.
