Quickies: Brown Line Saturday closings; likely no CTA bus strike
Some quick hits to start the weekend:
- The Kimball and Francisco Brown line stations will be closed this weekend after all, but only on Saturday. Earlier in the week the CTA said they'd be open this weekend. Maybe they're a bit behind when they kept the stations open a few weeks back because of rain.
- The bus drivers union reports that drivers probably won't strike now, because they are happy with a resolution to their rostering beef. Read the Trib for details, particularly on what rostering is about.
- And check out this funny post on John Tolva's Web log about his encounter with a fainting woman on the El. It seems a guy in white coat swooped in to help, except he was a chef, not a doctor. Read his description about how fellow passengers all took on various roles to help the woman. John reports that his role was "mentally blogging."
