I'm new in town and a job's got me going home at 12 midnight. I don't have a car yet, so got to rely on public transport in the meantime. I need to take the Red line and a bus towards E. Garfield. I know that's a pretty scary neighborhood, but if I had to wait for a bus going east on Garfield at the train station at 12 MN, will there be at least a CTA person still working that shift, so I can feel a little bit more secure?

Anyways, I'm also looking at other options like carpooling and going a roundabout trip to downtown and taking the Metra Electric. But I'd like to get more ideas. Thanks.

I have no idea. You should call the CTA and ask.

Perhaps check into the express buses as an alternative. I have no idea how far east you are going but I would stick with an express bus like 6-Jackson Park Express.

It all depends where you are coming from and how far east your destination is.

It does run. I have taken it very late before and I checked. I have been drinking, but it takes a lot to get me drunk brother!

The last Southbound #6 leaves Wacker and Columbus at 1:30 am M-F and 1:00 am Sat,Sun, and Holidays.
