The scene when I got on the train this evening. Columbus Day aka Indigenous People Day is a quiet night on the train

I'm on Chance the Rapper's train today. This is what CTA was going on about on Social Media thought not on the site not to be mentioned here

Had to take a better pic of the cloth seats from a few days ago. Just don't see this on CTA anymore.

And when I got on the bus this afternoon I may still pose this question to the CTA. When a bus gets cancelled does this mean a driver didn't come into work? 🚌

This is what the train looked like when I got on.

I almost thought there was a #Cubs game tonight but I'm not sure they played at home. Regardless they're out of the #Postseason ⚾️

You don't see seats like this often on CTA. Cloth seats.

Not about shaming but to see someone laid out on the subway platform - as if to go to bed for the night - is not something I want to see.

Always something on the Red Line. Always! 🤷🏽‍♂️

If you can see the people that are huddled in this corner of the train. The can where the motorman would control the train. They'd often be smoking or worse in this part of the train. CTA needs to address this.

I really like seeing red line stations getting deep cleaned. Can't wait to see this at 95th Street. This was last night at Chicago
September 18, 2025 at 2:33 PM
The earliest I've ever been on the train after getting off work.

Forgot to share this pic from Wednesday night. I really like seeing CTA deep clean their L stations. Especially 95th Street where I snapped this shot.
