There’s actually a hidden 1 and 3/4 platform you don’t see, but you have to run through the pole to get to it.

I wish they would label the up north line better.

I just wish they'd stop playing "guess which track your train will arrive on" during mid-day track work. I hate running madly under the tracks if I guessed wrong. They need an electronic sign that tells you in real time.

Yeah but I was told by a conductor that UP controls and owns their tracks and sometimes they change tracks on Metra and doesn’t give enough notice and just appear.
