Green Line between Clinton & Clark/Lake, Chicago
In case you didn’t hear him last time telling you about laying your baby on its back, now he’s reminding you not to smoke or get stressed out or pick up STDs while you’re pregnant. Is this only a Green Line campaign? That’s the only place I’ve seen it.

Tonight the train stopped and some recording came on and said “sorry for the delay blah blah blah” and then we didn’t move and it came on again.. and then the driver got come on and said “sorry for the delay, there’s a small track fire ahead.” We looked out the window and could definitely see smoke and some small flames on the track next to us. Our driver (I think) got out and was bashing it with a stick or something and then went back and got a fire extinguishers and sprayed it. Two fire extinguishers. I don’t know if the first one ran out, or what. A bit later I noticed the firefighters on the ground. The woman behind me on the train said they’d been there the whole time and that they were laughing. Nice.

Wilson Red Line Station, Uptown, Chicago
Last weekend Chicagoist sponsored the Soul of Chicago Express tour. We provided snacks and beverages for the 50+ people that attended the CTA tour. Tony Coppoletta arranged the tour and it was pretty great. We went to stations on the south side and the west side that I’d probably have never gone to on my own. Plus I learned a lot about routes and stations that I frequent. Great info, great music, great snacks! Also, surprise!, the CTA people were really nice.
