This would appear to be a bug.  As far as I can figure, the problem is 
when you are taken into custody and all of your stuff is stolen.  My 
guess is that Graham neglected to remove the worn attribute from the 
uniform when it's stolen from you.  The simplest solution I can think of 
is to remove and drop the uniform right after you finish the Train scene.
