    Three Metra lines stop here, MD-W, MD-N, and NCS Lines, while the UP-W Line passes it by. The 1st two stop here all day, seven days a week.

    "On the Bi-Level" is an entertaining read if you need something to help pass the time!

    This is one of the dirtiest Metra stations in the city.

    The shelter always smells like urine. Wait on the far east side by the slightly open window so you can breath.

    There was a guy letting his kid per in the corner of the underpass during rush hour yesterday. How do you even react to that?

    Arrive early! Sometimes, the train leaves 1-3 minutes before the scheduled departure. Be early!

    No manned ticket booth. You'll need to buy your ticket on the train or at another station.

    Bring noise canceling headphones to tune out the masses of inconsiderate people on their cell phones.
