If you use the transit early in the morning, midday, or at night, you should let your IL representative know that they should fund the #public #transit. “We may need to eliminate midday, late night or early morning or overnight service,”says the CTA acting president. #Metra #PACE #Chicago

Hey all 👋🏼 🤗 I've been absolutely swamped at work (an entire month on site, everyday!) but wanted to mention real quick that the #Chicago transit 🚆 🚂 system is facing a massive budget shortfall for 2026!

There is currently NO funding set aside in the '26 #illinois budget to address the crisis facing #Chicgoans who rely on #CTA #metra and #BNSF for work or ridership or both.

If you rely on these services or just like #walkablecities, #DSA #CDSA has prepared a short letter that you can submit to Gov. #pritzker in just a few clicks ! 🖱️

Love our transit in Chicagoland! So many locals and visitors—tourists, commuters, folx w/disabilities… depend on #CTA #Metra #PACE daily. We’re facing a draconian cut that will undermine every aspect of Chicago and IL’s vitality. Call your state rep! #saveTransit #transit4all #pupplay #LGBTQ #gay

Watching the Caltrain go by with their stupid high-efficiency higher-speed electrification and their stupid fancy new double decker cars without the wasted space of the old galley cars is making me SO MAD. :babyrawr:​

STOP BEING SO FANCY. *glares at it but double glares at Illinois for Metra being underfunded outdated trash* :vlpn_angry:​

...choo choo 🚂​ :neomouse_train_wagon:​

Occasionally you're in the right place to film an event. This was a lorry getting stuck on a level crossing in La Grange, IL - the freight train hit it, made a mess of both the trailer and parts of the station: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SXXb7PO1AT0 #Illinois #Railway #Metra https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SXXb7PO1AT0

When I purchase my ticket through the app as the train is pulling into the station, I wonder if this is what Trinity feels like when she gets operating instructions for the UH-1 Huey uploaded directly into her brain. #Today #PublicTransportation #Trains #Metra #Chicago #TheMatrix

I wonder if I'll run into the asshole who yelled at me last week when I asked him to respect the quiet car rules.

I hope so. 🤣
