Meeeat.
Can I buy Metra tickets and CTA passes on site/day of? I saw that you could buy CTA passes online, but they take 10 days to come.
Metra I think you can buy on the train or day of if you get there a bit earlier than the train time.
CTA 3 day passes are available apparently here…

It doesn’t seem to tell us where you can get the 3 day pass other than at O’hare. There’s a place near where I work that would have them; its the head building for all that. If we can’t get the 3 day pass, we can always just get a regular pass, put some cash on it and roll with that. Its less efficient, but easier to come by.
I’ll see if I can ask someone if I could buy the passes early and if they become active when you use them or right away.
ooh ps.. I’m going to be getting out at 5:30 on Friday; I might be able to work from home that Friday; in which case I’d still need to work till 5:30, but at least I’d be home and you guys could come and dump your stuff off.
sigh
The CTA webpage fails at transferring good info about the rail passes, but it looks like if you can get a hold of one, your “3 days” starts on the first use, which makes sense if people are buying them on the web and having them mailed. It says to allow 10 days for mailing, and we are too close to that for my tastes. If you can get them, Nate, I say go for it, I’ll have 14 sweaty dollar bills to tuck any where you like.
