Zol87 Posted February 9, 2012 Report Share Posted February 9, 2012 Did anyone catch the news that the South Shore Line will stop using the Kensington (115th Street) station on February 15, 2012? http://www.nictd.com/news.html "Effective: Febuary 15, 2012 SOUTH SHORE TO DISCONTINUE SERVICE TO KENSINGTON/115TH ST. STATION The South Shore is advising passengers that it will discontinue service to Kensington/115th St. Station effective Wednesday, February 15, 2012. Over the past several years NICTD has been working on a major capital project to improve our connection with the Metra Electric District. This new connection uses the Canadian National tracks east of the Kensington platform and effectively "by-passes" Kensington Station; allowing South Shore trains to connect directly with Metra's Tracks 3 and 4 north of Kensington platform. This improvement will increase train speed and track capacity, while reducing the potential for train delays when merging with Metra. Passengers transferring between Metra Electric and South Shore trains are advised to use 57th St. Station." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
