   The Chicago Metra Electric line sure is weird  on weekends. 4 car trains with   
   2 conductors and only the first car is open on a branch run to South Chicago.   
   Thus empty 3 cars are being hauled with the associated waste of electricity to   
   run them. I am NOT    
   interested in any Metra excuses for a fare HIKE in 2015 !!!
