Platform speakers tell us that the train will be arriving in 5 minutes and a minute after that announcement another one tells us that the train is now arriving. Metra's trying, but when it comes to introducing new technology Metra always seems to screw it up, just a little bit.
There was an occasion when the train went down and no trains were able to head downtown for hours....there was nothing announced on the platform speakers....all of us who stood there for a 1/2 hour were told by another women on the platform, who was told by a friend on the stuck train, who called her on her cell to tell her that there was an accident and no trains will be moving for a while, told all of us so we could find other ways to get into the city..... So Metra what happened that day with the Platform speakers.... the one time we could have really used some important info, Metra was silent.
