Oh, L No! Tales of Public Transit

New website collects the good, bad and ugly stories of commuting on the CTA.

Long ugly fingernails. An impromptu striptease on the Red Line. A German Shepherd, commuting solo on the Blue Line and scaring potential riders.

Surely, there are countless tales to be told while commuting in a major metropolitan city like Chicago, and a new website aims to collect those stories in one place.

Called Oh, L No!, the site is broken down by color-coded rail line and its mission is pretty simple: "Oh, L No! is a place where you can read and post stories from the ‘L’ in Chicago. Select an ‘L’ line, or an individual story and see what other people have shared!"
