Took me 45 minutes to find a parking spot at the train station this morning

I usually roll into the Park & Ride lot at 7:15 and grab a spot near the front. Today I got there at 7:10 and the whole lot was full. Circled for 20 minutes. Nothing. Ended up parking in the overflow gravel lot way in the back, which added a 10 minute walk to the platform. Then the train was delayed 15 minutes because of track work near Union Station. Has anyone else seen the lot fill up that early lately?

Have you tried getting there closer to 6:45? I started doing that after the same thing happened to me a few months back. I just adjust my morning routine a bit and it makes a huge difference.

Have you tried getting there closer to 6:45?" 6:45? That's basically still nighttime for me, man. I can't imagine rolling out of bed that early just to beat the parking lot crowd.
