I left a note for him because I couldn't find him saying: "I thought the train was gonna fill!" So this guy with no self control and wearing a Metra uniform confronts me in the lobby of the station Are you seriously this stupid? Little people with no power.

It's also weird how they at times have a lot of TSA level fake security while a drug dealer is literally cattle calling that he is selling weed 20 feet away from them. Like why not just call the police & have them escorted off the premises? At times I've seen security act just as wild as the passengers. The station itself is nice. It looks like it was recently renovated. It's pretty much a bus depot with buses that go all over the southside coming here. As always KEEP YOUR HEAD ON A SWIVEL & CALL THE POLICE if you need help. There are a ton of shady characters. I've seen people before try to get a CTA employee to help them out with an issue & act surprised when the employee doesn't help them. Just like the "security theatre" that is TSA, CTA isn't law enforcement... they CAN'T enforce laws. They will only assist you by making a report & contacting the actual police.

A wonderful friend of mine lives in Oak Lawn, Illinois, so when my dad and I were going to a Notre…read moreDame football game a little while back, I asked whether she would mind dropping us off somewhere along the South Shore Line's route. When my dad and I got to Chicago, my friend said she had scoped out the closest station to where she lived and that it seemed sketchy. I told her I didn't mind, although my dad was a little concerned. Being the stubborn person that I am, I told him it would be fine. I was the one who had ridden the South Shore Line many times by myself, right? We'd only be at the station until the train came, right? Well, sort of. On the way to the station, my friend tried to persuade me to let her drop us off somewhere closer to downtown. "It's fine with me," she said, but I didn't want to put her out. So we found the station and waited in her car until the train was about five minutes away. My dad and I caught the train right off, and we got to South Bend easily. So what's my beef with this station? Well, we made a return trip too. Again, my friend told me she'd be happy picking up us at the Roosevelt Road or even the Randolph Street Stations (as the Museum Campus and Millennium, respectively, were then called). I told her it would be fine. When we arrived at the Kensington Station, my friend wasn't there yet. We didn't have a phone, and I couldn't find a payphone, so we had to sit on the platform and wait. It was dark, cold, and desolate. I had my dad sit tight with our bags while I looked in the other parking lot, but my friend was nowhere to be found. Sitting up there with my dad, I was imagining the worst. His natural nervousness was rubbing off on me. My friend eventually arrived, and everything turned out OK. But I wouldn't voluntarily use this station again. The neighborhood is scarily quiet, and the station entrance is downright terrifying at night.

This station really isn't that bad, I have been taking this line for years to downtown and back…read more Yes to the unfamiliar, it can be a little sketchy being in this neighborhood, but really we don't many problems around here. Maybe it's because I grew up here, and I've always felt safe here. And I always come home late too, usually around 1 on the last train in. But a lot of people commute to this neighborhood to use this station, so during rush hour, this area looks like something different , tons of people everywhere. Like I said, it may not look like a great place,(depending. Where u r looking off the tracks) but as a white person using this line and living in this neighborhood for years, I can assure you it's perfectly okay here, aside from some of the scum you see sitting around the station sometimes...I keep my knife..just in case...Haha..remember, if you look like you are scared, that's when u get screwed with. But this is the southside, what do u expect? ???

The station is probably one of the nicest ones on the south side outside Beverly. Generally, the…read moresouth side is neglected by the city, but since the Pullman stop here is across from Pullman National Monument, they'll be sure to keep it up. It's a small Metra station that serves the Metra Electric line, which means it's one of those few that goes to Millennium Station, not Ogilvie or Union. The 111th Street Station is located in Zone C for Metra fare purposes. It's one of the least busy in the entire Metra system--apparently there are fewer than 50 people boarding here on average each day. Given its infrequent use, there aren't any services here; you won't find an agent, but on the other hand that means that if you have to buy your ticket on the train you won't pay a surcharge for buying it from the conductor. Parking isn't available for this station but there are CTA bus connections. Most unfortunately, this station is not at all accessible. There's 30+ steps to the platform, but you won't find an elevator here, I'm afraid, so if you need one you'd be better served by finding another station to use.

I decided to take the bus to visit my family in Davenport Iowa. My husband dropped me off at the…read morebus stop on 95th st, that would take me downtown Chicago to complete my travel. My complaint, the place was very, very dirty and even thought it was early, I did not feel safe waiting for the downtown bus. The ticket taker was rude and not helpful at all. The next time I take the bus, I will make sure I get a ride to the downtown station, which was much better and cleaner. I will bypass 95th st, unless they decided to clean it up and get someone in there that has better customer service skills. I usually do not right reviews, but this was not a good experience for anyone to have, especially a senior citizen. I also, had a coupon for a discount, and the ticket taker said she could not access the information to give me a discount, at this point all I wanted to do was get to my next desination and get out the the bus terminal.
