Best way into the city. Easy, works, cheap, and it's parallel the highway so you can wave at all traffic as you arrive!

Blue line from O'Hare to city - ranks fairly high on efficiency, very high on affordability.

Get a round trip ticket it's cheaper, clean train and the AC works well plan on a 45 min ride from O'Hare to downtown. Get off at Washington. Station for Millinium Park

Take Blue line to and from airport. It's the least you could do to minimize your carbon footprints.

The only CTA train station I know of that people form a line to get on the bus!

Dress as a pirate and when a homeless guy comes and asks you for money, hold out your sword and ask, "can I help ye mayte?"

Addison is the home of the Cubbies! Can we make it the vacation home of StreetWise?

If an inbound train is really crowded, wait for the next one. It'll be there shortly.

Don't take the 152 bus from here to cubs. Try Irving park instead.

Who suggests waiting for the next train if an inbound is crowded? Who had time for that nonsense??
