i might be getting off at Vanburan or Milliennium station please help me out someone|||I really do live in Chicago, really, the Millennium Station is the end of the line for the Electric line, and the South Shore line, don't go all the way to the station, you're gonna want to get off at Roosevelt, there is a wooden walkway to either Michigan ave or Columbus dr, you'll want to walk to Columbus, you can see it from up on that walkway, there is a sign to show you which sidewalk goes under Lake Shore Drive and that sidewalk goes to the Shedd, it's about three blocks, it's going to be cold but it's not that far of a walk|||Hi I live in Chicago, and can tell you there is no metra stop at Millenium park nor on Van Buren. The ogilvee transportation center and union station (two big train stations in Chicago the metra trains come into the city in) are of Madison St, over the bridge, 1 block east from Wacker. To go from the Shedd Aquarium to the metra is about a mile and a quarter. If you were taking the El trains it would be easier, but if your not familiar with downtown it's tricky to figure out where to cross Lake Shore Drive from the shed. Basically it's a walk you'd be 100% better of taking a cab, the walk is long and it's cold here. Good luck.

Chris|||Too far, especially since it's supposed to be freezing that day. Take a cab (about a $7 ride) or take the special Museum Campus bus that lets you right off at the front door. The bus makes stops downtown and will take you right there. Check inside the Metra station for bus information|||There's a stop at Roosevelt, just south of Van Buren, on that line (the "Metra Electric"), and the Roosevelt stop is about four blocks from Shedd Aquarium. You can see the aquarium easily from the Metra stop. It's walkable, but it'll be cold.
