I travel from CHI to MKE quite often. I can take the Amtrak, but that's about $25. I found I can take the Chicago area commuter train from downtown Chicago to Kenosha for about $6. This is significantly cheaper than Amtrak, but it leaves me in Kenosha, not Milwaukee. Does anyone know of a good way to get to downtown Milwaukee from Kenosha?

The Coach USA bus line runs from the Metra station to Milwaukee downtown with stops in Racine and Mitchell airport. It costs about $4.00 or $5.00 one way and takes about an hour, hour and a half.

^^^Yup. I used to do this all the time. Look up Wisconsin Coach Lines (the division of CoachUSA that operates it) to get the full schedule. For a trip filled with public transit fun, take the Wisconsin Coach Lines bus to Kenosha, jump on the streetcar to grabe a garbage plate at Franks Diner, then take the streetcar back to the Metra Station down to Chicago. It's a cheap, fun way to travel.
