    One of my favorite stations in the Cta railway, Because it's very close to a target where if I end…read moreup on the south side and I need to get some stuff I can just go to that target! Very clean station, But Trains take a while to get here.

    This 35th St/Archer Orange Line Station, which is the next stop going toward the Loop after the…read moreWestern Ave. station, is also my next favorite Orange Line station. The Western Avenue station is my favorite because it is on a boulevard and that's a pretty tough location to beat! This station seems to get quite a bit of light on sunnier days. I think it has a more comfortable feel to it than the Kedzie and Ashland stations. Those stations feel "tucked away" to me - - and not in a cozy-feel type of way. This station has the usual escalator/stairways along with an elevator. I deducted a star because that elevator was out - of - order for about a month last year. Also, it was out another time and no one bothered to put a sign on the platform elevator door--wasted minutes waiting for an elevator that was not working! I have since found out that you can sign up for alerts regarding the elevators--it's nice to know in advance if they aren't working. The first couple of times that I added money to my CTA card on the Ventra vending machines, I asked the CTA attendants for assistance. Both times they were very kind and did not make me feel like I was bothering them. Sometimes people in this sort of job can do that! Luckily, not the case here. They were pleasant, helpful and willing to assist. There is a Dunkin Donuts in this station, which could be a plus, however, according to the current reviews on this DD Yelp business page, it could also be a disappointment. There are connections to four bus routes at this station : #35 (31st/35th Street), #39 (Pershing Road), #50 (Damen Avenue) and #62 (Archer Avenue).

    Grand Boulevard

    CTA has a station at 47th Street and it's not bad. It actually is pretty nice and clean. With the…read moreoutdoor platform there's very few bad smells. Even though the area isn't great it's not all bad or anything. The trains get here every few minutes. It seems to be one of the better stations in the area. It serves the Red Line. This also has great access to busses as many come to the bus stops just outside the entrance of this elevated station. It's also clean. There's not that bad smell like at underground stations. Also this above ground station gives you a good view of the surrounding area. This happens to be in the middle of the Dan Ryan Expressway so you can see cars whizz by and maybe see crashes or something else interesting. Good as far as transit stations go. It's cleaner than most others around here. This is mostly quiet except for the traffic and it's for the most part safe.

    Three things cause me to evangelize…read more 1. Living the car-free lifestyle 2. Seamlessly integrating useful technology into people's lives without adding more clutter or useless, expensive gadgets. 3. A Genoa salami sandwich on sourdough bread with brown mustard and lettuce. For the purposes of this review, we are going to concentrate on #1 and 2. Though eating the #3 sandwich while riding the Red line somewhere interesting would be great too. I don't usually use the 47th street station, riding to Garfield instead on my weekly trek down to the U of C campus. Today, flush with the pheromones of change, I took a different bus route home that took me to the 47th street station. This station was clean, neat and extremely well lit. In front, near the bus waiting area, was a giant flat screen showing the CTA bus tracker arrival schedule for the routes that serve this station - CTA Buses #15, #24, #47, #51. Beautiful! Walking inside the station, was another flat screen TV showing Red line northbound and southbound arrivals. Mon dieu! This is a beautiful thing for People Like Me that have not scurried down the iPhone rabbit hole just yet. Both of these TVs worked, and were *not* splattered with effluvial swill!! In my happiness at seeing this efficiency, I dared to dream that all Red line stations would be quickly outfitted with these features - yet wistfully wondered how long it would be before the screens got broken and/or stolen. But at any rate . . . this station is a score for the CTA.

    Chinatown, Near Southside

    Cermak-Chinatown Station is a CTA station on the Red Line. Red Line runs 24 hours a day with wait…read moretimes of 15 minutes or less. According to the train schedule, waits for trains are usually 7-8 minutes for most of the day. Chinatown is a neighborhood that is split into two parts, as one part contains Chinatown Square, while the other part contains the main Chinatown neighborhood. The station is located in an eastern location between these two areas that is equidistant to both. The elevated train platform also has a nice view of the Chinatown area including the neighborhood library and the Chinatown gate. On the street, the station entrance is close to the Nine Dragon Wall, which is a nice piece of Chinese art. I recommend this station if you are trying to get to Chinatown as trains are frequent and because it operates at all times of the day. There is no need to take a car if you are a tourist unless you are buying some heavy relic or coming from out of town.

    CTA has an L station at Chinatown. For as busy as it is, it sure is clean, believe me. It gets…read morepacked with residents and tourists. A lot of buses to get onto from here. The location is probably the only thing worth mentioning too much about it, but this is a pretty okay station. Best thing about this for sure is the location convenient to Chinatown. It serves the Red Line. This is literally right there. Just walk west past the parking lot and you're at tons of restaurants. There's a big parking lot for those who drive here, that's $2 for 3 hours, but it has limited space. Get here by the L instead, and actually save even more and help the environment. There's also pretty cool views of the architecture from here. Get to Chinatown the cheapest and fastest. It's better than parking because there's no need to drive and there's no time limits. The trains always come often.
