    Just to be on the safe side, give yourself at least 45 minutes. Anything can happen.

    As for the 20 minute prediction... LOL!!! The ride itself may be 20 minutes, but as for WAITING for the train? Tack on another 15-20 minutes just in case. It's hit or miss no matter what some "expert" says. The claim that the CTA runs on a "schedule" is a joke. There used to be schedules posted at every train station. They took them down recently. Want to guess why?
