CHICAGO — With the Red Line potentially expanding as far south as 130th Street, DNAinfo decided to round up some of the shenanigans on the current Red Line.
The city's busiest train line, running from Howard Street south to 95th Street, is known for its characters and unpleasant smells.
In honor of the possible Red Line expansion, DNAinfo asked Ryan Smith, founder of the popular social media account CTA Fails, to round up a few of his favorite tweets and Instagram posts from Red Line incidents in the last year.
As you can see, there's already been lots of questionable activity on the Red Line in 2016.
