Brightline is not railfan friendly. At Orlando yesterday, I wanted a photo of the engine, and was quickly "jumped".

Agreed, I definitely found that to be the case. Having discovered that, I wasn't even going to try for the photo above on the return but just as I was about to head up the escalator, I saw a father taking a photo of his son and took a chance, and he kindly took a quick photo of me. Otherwise, I found that the platforms were not a place I could get photos from, so I relied on shooting over the fence from the public side in West Palm Beach!
