, train wrecks are so predictable at this point... like how can you not see an accident coming? I mean, it's CTA, they gotta have better safety protocols in place, right? 
And 15 passengers on board? That's just crazy. I'm glad no one was seriously hurt tho 
.
. It's just another example of how our public transportation system needs to step up its game.
just another way for the news to go viral without actually doing their job.
I'm so sorry to hear that 
this happened on Chicago's public transportation system... accidents like this can be really traumatic and frustrating for people who just want to get to work or school safely 
. My heart goes out to the person involved in the crash and their loved ones 
. It's just awful that commuters had to deal with delays and disruption to their daily routines 
. Safety should always be the top priority, especially in situations like this 
.
. First of all, train wrecks are super scary - imagine being on that train when it happened! 
Glad everyone is safe though, fingers crossed for those who were involved 
.
️. It would be so much easier to navigate the city if we had more modern transportation options 
. Anyone else having a bad day because of this train wreck? 
. You gotta feel for those commuters who got stuck waiting at the station for hours. It's just not right. And what's with the timing? 9:30 am on a Wednesday morning? That's when people are supposed to be getting to work, not stuck in traffic... or in this case, stuck in train traffic 
Like, can you even imagine being on that train and then BAM! 
. And ugh, what a pain for all the people who rely on that train service - I mean, I get it accidents happen but still 
. Hopefully, everyone involved is okay and the city can figure out what went wrong. 
i feel bad for the person who got hurt but hopefully they're okay 
like what if it was more passengers involved or... and don't even get me started on how crazy it is to see train wrecks happening in real life 
anyway i'm just glad no one got majorly hurt 
Anyway, guess we'll have to be extra patient today and hope the service gets back on track (no pun intended) 
guess what's even crazier? i just looked up the cta website and there are no updates on when service will resume...like, come on! give us some info!!
