    If switching to the Red Line (or catching the Blue Line) late at night/early in the morning, try to get on the first car for safety. If anything goes wrong, the conductor is right there.

    CTA cleans and power wash the stations in the early mornings on certain days. So the Jackson stop doesn’t smell bad like it use too.

    If the old guy with the mic and boombox is here, give him a buck and ask him to sing something by Sam Cooke.

    Tunnel from red to blue line always smells like feces. Plug your nose or deal with the smell.
