Hi Dave, I used to get off at the Bedford Park station. When I went to night school I would fall asleep and pass my station. The transit cop (we had those then, on every car) would come and hit me on the knee to wake up. Somehow, I was never afraid to sleep on the train. That was in the 70’s. Times have changed!
