Coquitlam Central — Attraction in Coquitlam

I'm a tourist from out of province, so I know I am in the wrong here for not knowing the rules - however I took a small puff of my vape (I recently quit smoking cigarettes) while waiting for my SkyTrain as I thought it would be okay, the station is open air and empty, and I didn't see the signage until I was spoken to. I had an Irish (I think) SkyTrain attendant yell at me from across the tracks "there's no smoking on the SkyTrain, I caught you! You aren't so special!". I found this very unprofessional, as I am not from here and did not see any signage. A simple "hey there's no smoking allowed here" would have been more than enough and I would have apologized profusely.

I will be sure not to puff my vape in the stations anymore but I wish that staff member was a little more decent and personable. It wasn't hard to catch me as I wasn't trying to be sneaky? I believe it was the most interesting...

I know it's always been rewarding to me if I can answer or assist someone with...

I have a bias opinion about this specific location. I work afternoon from 12 pm to 830 pm and the wait time for a train to arrive is always 10 min or more but what makes it hurt more is that every time I get to braid station or 22 no street station, I missed the bus by mere minutes and have to wait for 30 min. There needs to be more services in the evening for people who are not working necessarily 9 to 5. I still want it get home quickly and enjoy time...
