Editor at large
I really think I need to offer my services as a roaming editor. Obviously there's a need -- even on the CTA, which obviously didn't bother with proofreading before they posted their new system maps in every train car (all 1,100 of them).
Two of the CTA rail system maps are posted in each car. The closer you look, the more errors you will find.The new maps list the Belmont station on the Blue Line as "Bemont."And on the Red Line, the Fullerton stop, a major transfer point on the CTA's busiest rail line, no longer is shown as a place for passengers to switch between the Red, Brown and Purple Lines.
They also transposed two digits in the CTA phone number, so instead of the transit authority, you get the voice mail of a kid named Nick. Lucky for him, his outgoing message says he never checks his voice mail.
