Take a ride on the CTA Red Line

In the spirit of the old-timey Sunday drive – anybody still take those? – we thought we’d post this video excursion on the CTA Red Line – the gritty, urban version of a weekend tour.

In the first part of this video, we ride from Lawrence Avenue to Addison. In part two (available on YouTube) we continue on to Fullerton. Together, the videos offer a look at the housing stock from Edgewater to Lincoln Park (the train even passes a few developments).

The recent woes of the CTA also are evident. In part two, notice how jammed the Belmont platform is.
