- Jarett DeAngelisMay 6, 2013I am amazed at how there are like 10 tips here warning about Jesus freaks. No sooner did I check in than a guy sat next to me and started mush-mouthedly mumbling about how he brags about His mercies.
- Best way to avoid the religious people trying to convert you and the hobos is to put some headphones on and listen to music.
- If your up fun time all goes on here... Large transit and connection, homeless shelter, music, awesome Redeye guy and various religious brochures for your liking. ENJOY :)
- The guy that holds the money can with his toes makes me super nervous
- If going northbound to Jefferson Park, use the fifth train car. Leaves you off right by the stairs and escalator.
- Richard WatsonMarch 23, 2010There is a religious nut with a sign proclaiming Saturday is the True Sabbath that screams "Read it and tweet it" as you pass. He's a must see! ;)
- If you are taking the train on the weekend be ready to stand, the train only operates with four carts..
- Lee StrausbergJanuary 29, 2012Headed south to Jefferson Park take the 4th car and you'll be let out by the stairs :-)
- Cathy StellsJuly 10, 2011Ticket machines only take exact change, and there is no converter. Be sure to have small bills and coins! It is cheap, though. $2.25 for a rail ticket.
- You will always see a guy asking people for 2 dollars. You got two dollars?
- Smokey BoyleFebruary 13, 2013Don't let the heat lamp go off. The wind can be a bitch when it's cold.
- Next time you're on the CTA - look for the Complex Tale of The Burger
- Go to Rons grill next to 711 an try they're fried sweet banana
- There are short trains in the morning. If you wait to far down you'll miss the train.
- If it's an option, take the #92 Foster bus instead. This beeeeyotch crawls.
- Be prepared for a mad dash to the bus if it's there otherwise it'll be at least 30 minutes until another one arrives.
- Charlie UlrichSeptember 15, 2012If they are asking for money, they are scamming ya! (Milwaukee bus ends here)
- Tell the Jesus freaks that you're gay and they leave you alone.
- There is a toothless guy who plays the flute. He has crazy eyes.
- Let me restate that. It smells like fried chicken & pee.
- MariamSeptember 24, 2012Don't walk leisurely up or down the stairs. Or at all. People got places to go!
