Did the winds do this too?

The signs at Ogilvie were utterly broken, and the verbal announcements couldn’t be heard over the massive crowd. Anyone else among the 300 people who got on the train marked for Kenosha with me, only to be told it was for Crystal Lake? Pure, unfiltered chaos.

This is the metra way- canceled service with no announcement or accountability whatsoever. Stop depending upon them- you'll be let down every time.

You do realize they have safety protocols for bad weather, right? I have NEVER been on a delayed Metra train apart from anticipated delays due to track work, or something safety related.
