Chicago is VERY Clever!

If you want to see the value that Clever Commute adds, we encourage you to look at these examples from the last 24 hours.

Tuesday morning: a rider on Metra’s Milwaukee District North Line shared news of inbound delays.

Tuesday evening: a Purple Line commuter alerted us as follows:
Purple express South stopping at Sheridan for Elton John Billy Joel concert

Wednesday morning: activity on the BNSF

  1.  637 train out of RT 59 to Chicago is stopped due to a Naperville train stopped at Naperville station!
  2. BNSF Train #1230, scheduled to arrive Chicago Union Station at 7:44  a.m., is currently stopped at Naperville due to mechanical problems…
  3.  657 out of rt 59 is delayed behind other trains
  4. BNSF trains are now moving

As we like to say here at Clever Commute “It’s good to know”….and once you are armed with info like this…you are better prepared for your commute.

A note on message formats: we encourage people to put thier entire message in the SUBJECT line of the e-mail. You’d be amazed at what can fit in 140 characters. (both of today’s ‘alerts’ would have made it…with room to spare).
