Selling the State Street subway with postcard cross-section renderings
2012-01-11 14:35:00 Each week on its Facebook and Twitter accounts, the CTA posts an historic photo. Last week the agency posted this cool cross-section rendering from 1941 of what the State Street subway would look like. It kinda looks like something out of the Jetsons. So I publish it here for your enjoyment. Below is the caption... Read more »
SUBWAY FLEXING
2012-01-05 18:53:00 Flexing, aka Bonebreaking, is a form of street dancing that involves rhythmic contortions, slides, glides, pops and locks. Think breakdancing, meets robot, meets industrial grime. Here's a premier group from Brooklyn, New York City known as NextLevel Squad "flexing" their stuff inside the subway system. At about 4:28 it gets surreal--these guys are intense!

Subway: Colon Fresh
2011-12-13 02:11:00 Last Monday I eat half of a three-day-old buffalo chicken Subway sandwich. Immediately I feel nauseous. My body has trained itself to stave off vomit, despite my desire to get it over with, so for three hours I sit in agony at my desk. I?ve vomited in many different places, but never at work: it is time to pull the trigger. I enter a single-stall bathroom: occupied. Another: occupied. I walk upstairs to the bigger facility: empty. I enter the end stall, place a small tree-worth of paper towels on the ground and around the bowl, and drop to my knees. Just before I go for the finger, someone walks in to get his own relief. I leave and return later. Empty now, I go for it. Finger in mouth, gag reflex, come on puke! It doesn?t work, an outcome I haven?t experienced before. This Subway is stubborn. I go home early and sit in my La-Z-Boy motionless, watching Monday Night Football coverage for hours. Finally as I watch Blaine Gabbert cause similar nausea for Jaguars fans, it comes rapid...
How to make $150 a day hustling candy on the subway
2011-12-06 16:36:00 Yes, that’s $150 selling candy on New York City’s subway. That’s good money. If he works a five-day week, that’s almost $40,000 a year. And that’s after-tax money, because methinks he doesn’t pay taxes on it. He boasts about buying $300 sneakers with his earnings. And he’s quite the entrepreneur, because he sells a few... Read more »
$2 SUBWAY SANDWICH
2011-12-05 15:14:00 American sandwich franchise, Subway, is siding with cash-strapped customers this holiday season, as it plans to sell its Meatball Marinara and Cold Cut Combo subs for $2 ($4 footlong). While the "value meal" concept isn't anything new for them or competing food chains like KFC and Taco Bell, the company's plan is to convince consumers that they're getting more bang (and calories) for their buck, noting that a $2 meatball sub of 480 calories breaks down to 1$ per 240 calories worth of sandwich.

Chicago No Pants Subway Ride 2011
2011-01-10 06:58:00 For the second consecutive year, I took part in the No Pants Subway Ride put on by Improv Everywhere. Unlike last year, the temperature was almost 20 degrees warmer as about 300 people showed up to participate to take off their pants on the CTA.As most of you know, the ELis not often reliable or clean, but hundreds of people brave the cold and decided to bring some smiles and a few awkward glances to the riders of the CTA. With out further adieu, here is this year's video from the Chicago No Pants Subway Ride 2011. Question for the comments, would you take off your pants in public? ...
Subway Testing Gluten Free Menu Items
2011-01-09 21:31:00 The gluten free twittersphere was a buzz this week with news that Subway is testing out gluten free menu items in select markets. You can read all of the details here in this Chicago Tribune article.I have to say I wasn't the least bit surprised when most of my GF tweeps were skeptical of the attempt to add gluten free items to a chain known for their sandwiches.The potential for cross-contamination is mind-boggling. Yes, the people who prepare the sandwiches at Subway do wear gloves so if they're following Hannah's Bretzel's lead and just utilizing pre-made and packaged GF rolls it may work.However, if they are planning on baking their own GF bread they may have a problem. That requires a dedicated...
No "no pants subway ride" for me today
2011-01-09 19:16:00 It's a sad day for me, as today is one of the days I most look forward to in the new year. It's called the "no pants subway ride". For those of you who aren't familiar, a group of crazy people get together to ride the red line train in their underwear. A bunch of couchsurfers and friends do it every year and it has always been cold, but a blast.I have been sick all weekend; therefore, it's not in my best interest to venture out in 27 degree weather in my boxers. I buy "special" boxers every year for this sacred event, so I guess I will save the skull boxers and hat for next year.I decided to rent...

CTA year in review - Q2: New rail cars, "train tracker," subway f
2010-12-28 14:00:00 My CTA year in review continues with a look at what happened in April, May and June of 2010.April: This was a month of new technology introduced on the Chicago Transit Authority. Early in April the CTA rolled out "Train Tracker" at Brown Line stations. It still hasn't worked out all the kinks and made Train Tracker more widely available. Later in the month the CTA put its new rail cars to the test, first on the Red Line. The debate began on the aisle-facing seating configuration. We also saw a couple of criminals making headlines in April. A convicted sex offender was arrested for indecent exposure. And an exploded dye pack in a robber's loot bag was blamed for...

CTA steps up security after Moscow subway bombing

T-Mobile flubs sweet marketing effort on subway service
2009-11-18 01:32:00 On my way home tonight, I was handed a small bag of M&Ms by a nice young lady outside the Grand/State subway station. The bag said:Now arriving on the "L" Service available on thered and blue linesThe treat's on usThat's it. Seems rather cryptic. Except, since I'm the CTA Tattler, I know right away T-Mobile was trying to hype the new availability of phone and data service in the subway tunnels. Except it didn't say "subway" or "tunnel" anywhere on the little bag. Now, that's just bad marketing.So I've taken the liberty of editing the copy for T-Mobile. And hey T-Mobile, you don't even have to give me credit....

I've commented before on how well-executed and how just, flat out awesome Melanie Fiona's 'Subway Series' has been. Well, this is sadly the third and final installment as Melanie Fiona travels around a couple London landmarks and performs "Ay Yo" with a horn ensemble and one of my favorites of the series - "Walk On By" with a harmonica player. You can really feel the energy in the latter performance, further evidence to the talent of not only Ms. Fiona but also in the talented street or local performers you may encounter. In bonus Melanie Fiona coverage,...

?Surface subway? vs Porr
2009-09-21 05:13:00 Do we really need Porr and more highways if we have a bus rapid transit system like in Bogota?
