The "energized" rehab of Grand-State CTA Red Line station

By Kevin O'Neil, August 30, 2010 at 10:10 pm

Be careful of getting too energized on the platform level at Grand and State on the Red Line, which is undergoing a two-year-plus renovation of the mezzanine and platform. Here's the close-up view of the door sign I found there:

And the full view of the door:

OK, who can tell us what this sign means?

    Presumably that there is dangerous electrical equipment inside.

    Well, obviously Scotty beamed the whole room - including the original door - to the Enterprise.
    "Kirk to Scotty, one room to beam up. Energize"

    More evidence that the Red is the Groove Line.

    And what is that little drawing with a 23 next to it? Can't quite make it out...looks like a USB thumb drive. Doesn't seem like graffiti.
