    Amazing photos on the way to the station. Astonishing photos of the vast universe and nebulae. Science does a wonderful job of showing how amazing the universe is

    They've painted the tresseles above the platform Orange! It looks really cool! Check it out next time you're here.

    "Kiss & Ride" is a place to drop off loved ones. Don't let the name fool you.

    You can park on the street for free near the Pulaski St. station. It's one stop from Midway, and it's FREE!

    If one car is completely empty and the others are full, don’t get in it. It’s a trap. There’s always a reason!

    You can only get Ventra cards for fares now, but don't be deceived by the MasterCard logo, you can't use extra value anywhere but CTA, it's a separate account :[

    This is the first/last stop of the Orange Line. Be in the front car when to get to the airport the quickest.

    From MDW to the loop quick and cheap $3. <10% of cab and car fare and more predictable.

    Usually it isn't as filthy as people say. It's fast and easy and much cheaper than a cab to he loop.

    The man who runs the convenience store at this 'el station is slower than molasses. If you want a paper, have your change ready & drop it on the counter because he takes too long ringing up others.

    Opt for this $2.25 option over an expensive taxi.

    This is not a 24hour train line. Check the schedule if you are arriving late night. There is a bus to the 24 hour red line that runs late.
