More traffic cones.

Yeah, we couldn't figure out why they'd marked off this track with cones. The station is new -- it'll be two years old in a month -- but I don't think the track is newer than that.

I wondered if it was to keep people from trying to cross this track to get to/from the tracks on either side of it, where the trains were running. There's no visual barrier besides the depressed track and the cones between the tracks, so maybe if you weren't paying attention and were in a hurry, you'd fall in...

At least it made for a cool picture. :-)

Yes, a cool picture, if the reasons for the cones are rather unclear!

It's hard to imagine that whoever's responsible doesn't have some innate aesthetic sense, even if they didn't conceive of it as art. :-)

If memory serves me those cones have been there for all my SFO trips over the past 6 months or so.

I think the cones are still there... this looks familiar from my last trip to SFO.
