Yeah, the idea of "train police" is actually perfectly sensible since it's specialized and both the criminals and victims will be constantly transiting between jurisdictions. The fact that they're actually owned by the railroads is a creepy legacy of the original gilded age plutocracy. I first learned about this when I saw the BNSF cops driving around Fort Worth with "Police" on the door instead of "Security" like I would have expected.
