My daughter and her family live in Windsor Terrace, and I ride the F train from their place in and out of Manhattan whenever I'm down there. In fact just a couple of weeks ago we went to a party in Tribeca and came back pretty late, fortunately without running into any problems. Lots of photo opportunities on the platform and trains, but I tend to carry something as small as possible, like an Olympus XA, rather than a Leica! I'm glad your adughter is okay, hope they catch the guys.
