LosMediasBlancas Posted May 11, 2005 Share Posted May 11, 2005 QUOTE(Soxnbears01 @ May 11, 2005 -> 03:53 PM) south suburbs well, if Midway is closest, then do what I said. However, you can catch the red line all along the Dan Ryan on the southside and it will take to you the Addison stop and you won't need to transfer. If there is a Metra train near you that gets you downtown, do that and then catch the red line from downtown to Addison. I know the trains like my hand, need more detailed help? let me know.

Yes, remember the red line has subway stations once you get downtown. You might have to walk a few blocks to get to it. Where exactly is that Metra LaSalle station?

I meant LaSalle and what cross street? Geez. :finger It must be the LaSalle and Van Buren station. So walk 3 blocks East to State street, then 1 block North to Jackson, go down into the subway and catch the NORTH bound red line to Addison.

Midlo is packed with permit parkers is it not...? I always used OF because there was more room. At the time they would be leaving the lot would be full at Midlo with workers is what I was thinking.

I'm on the first train out of midlo in the morning , 5:39 am, and there is plenty of parking then I don't know about parking at oak forest or 103 & vincennes.. the lot at 103 was upgraded last summer...

Texsox Posted May 12, 2005 Share Posted May 12, 2005 Once you are there, where a Cubs cap and complain how Dusty Sucks, The Cubs suck, it's going to be a Sox town, when are they going to put in decent bathrooms for humans and not cattle, why couldn't Sosa be more like Thomas, stuff like that.
