  • If you live in northern Chicago suburbs, you should consider parking at Skokie Swift and taking the train from their to get to downtown Chicago - it'll take you about 1 hour to get to downtown from Skokie, assuming there's no construction or any other stoppages happening

      I occasionally take yellow line from Skokie to Chicago if I want to get to downtown. Yellow line is small in all aspects - the trains only have 2 carts, and there are just 2 stops - Howard and Skokie Swift. There is plenty of parking available near the Skokie Swift station -

      $2 gets you in the parking lot, but there’s generally plenty of spaces on side streets.

      The trains go every 10 minutes or so, a little less often in non-rush-hour periods. They just recently expanded their service to weekends - nice for those folks who don’t want to drive downtown on weekends.

      The Skokie ...


      • Swift station is located north of downtown Skokie. there’s a Starbucks close by, so when it’s cold I go there to get warm and have some hot coffee. It takes less than 5 minutes to get from Howard to Skokie Swift.

        Swift and taking the train from their to get to downtown Chicago - it’ll take you about 1 hour to get to downtown from Skokie, assuming there’s no construction or any other stoppages happening.

        It’s a clean line, and it gets you to Chicago from Skokie pretty fast - can’t ask for much more than that.
