That was quite a disaster. I imagine that the operator is looking for a new job about now... :unsure:

Looks like a"Die Hard" movie!

Hmm, the first 25 seconds looks like the stutter show I get in FSX :angry:

I just read that the operator nodded-off. Apparently she fell asleep and only woke-up after the crash. Next will hear about blood analysis showing she had something in her blood, which will cause everyone to freak out and demand tests be done on all operators.

She also was cited in the past for dozing and failing to stop at a station. 10 years living in the Chicago area and I have yet to ride the CTA. Too dangerous from a crime perspective and from an operating perspective.

The first few times I've had to depart from KORD I've taken the Southshore Line from Hammond to downtown Chicago, then walked to the Blue Line to take it to KORD.

 

Now I just drive to north Highland and park in the bus terminal (free guarded parking!) and ride the bloody bus to either MDW or ORD as required. Round trip is only $25...  :LMAO:
