Stop here for red, green, or orange lines. Field museum display on the walk underground to red line. Get off here for soldier field and museum campus. Walk or take the 146.Upvoted 1 week ago
Upon entering at Orange/Green, everyone crowds the first set of turnstiles. Move down BEYOND the divider. There's another set no one goes through. You'll make the train. ;)
In the tunnel between the red and orange lines, there is some awesome artwork depicting the history of the Earth. Check it out!- If only passengers could enter on the south side of the street. I would recoup several hours a year in lost productivity...
jessica machenMay 30, 2011When riding and rush hour approaches, move to the middle of the train to make room for more passengers. Don't stand in the doorway!
Beware of aggressive panhandlers. This is a super busy station. Eyes open
They finally opened the entrance on the Southside of the street. No more crossing and holding up traffic to board the train. Very exciting!
It's real windy on the platform...in the escalator opening to keep clear of it

Angel PilkinMarch 18, 2012Sometimes there is pee in the elevator and poop as well how a human takes a crap in a elevator without getting caught is beyond me
If you're making 3+ trips in a day, the Walgreens at the corner sells 1 day passes
If you can find an alternative route, take the alternate route. Super slow. The local crazies usually provide live entertainment tho...
La'Keisha Gray-SewellSeptember 30, 2011Switch lines here. Take moment to enjoy the artwork on the walls.
- Just beware of various bodily fluids left on the red line.
So many idiots light up in the subway. Watch for all the smokers.
To get to the red you'll keep going down ... And down ... And down ...
- they finally finished the south entrance to the platform! woot!
- E. W.June 1, 2010Train towards Howard is a nightmare on Cubs game days. If you can take a different train, do so.
3 South bound trains came and went before my north bound train came. Go south if you can.- I've seen myself reach speeds I never before thought possible in the tunnel between the orange and red lines.
Hide your gold and wallets. Because folks are watching....
What happened to the music that used to play here? Platforms are a hot mess; need a good cleaning.
Drunk fools like this are always here. Make sure to have a bag of popcorn and watch!
You probably shouldn't be looking at your phone, but at the crazy homeless most likely standing near you...
