The CTA has more than 224 miles of railroad tracks across Chicago and surrounding suburbs, serving the agency's eight rail lines. In an average weekday, there are about 2,200 train trips making stops at the system's 145 rail stations. For more than 100 years, the 'L' has offered a unique perspective of Chicago.
In the first-ever documentation of its kind, the CTA has created a real-time ride along the length of each rail line. Shot in HD, you can now experience the 'L' like never before from the vantage point of the rail operator. You can even transfer between lines.
Hop aboard, and enjoy the ride.

![CTA Ride the Rails: Red Line to Ashland/63rd [100 SUB SPECIAL]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/WeXdbOZ99x4/mqdefault.jpg)
I kinda like the CTA; your trains are small, nimble, and fast.
Based on what ive seen in these pretty awesome ride the rails vids the CTA has posted, that the EL trains are pretty fast for rapid transit trains, they accelerate pretty quick much quicker then here in NYC well at least is seems that way anyway but ill tell ya one thing ima transit buff and the EL is def a cool looking metro/Subway system
Depending on the driver and the line, the El can feel like a roller coaster. Usually they leave the station fast because another train is right behind them.
Video is priceless because it was perfectly shot in detailing the entire Ashland/ 63rd CTA trip with no screw ups with this video 👍👍👍👍👍 ....... Another thing I like about this video is the fact it shows that that crooked Chicago aldermen in city hall actually don't give a 🐀🐀🐀's butt about the people on the Southside and Westside of Chicago, All talk to get selected to office ....
They need to reopen the Racine train station
I always think the CTA should consider rebuilding some of the closed stations, like Wentworth and Harvard.
I feel the same way. I wish they'd reopen Wentworth (connection between the Red Line at 63rd) and Dorchester (connection to Metra and South Shore Line).
The area east of 63rd is coming back to life a bit...coffee shop is located in an area that had been dormant for years. Don't count on anything being rebuilt there...prime focus is on the Red Line extension and the Red/Purple line flyover....
No stops between Halsted and Garfield. Many riders will take the Red line on 63rd. In my opinion, the only reason Halsted was re-opened, and stays open is Kennedy King College.
Mark Broadnax You're probably right. I am looking forward to the Red Line Extension. The flyover looks promising, too. I'm glad the Far South Side is finally getting 'L' service. It has been needed for so long and only now is the CTA finally finalizing plans.
TheBoeingRailroader another need on the south side of Chicago is to better utilize the metra electric line and upgrade it to rapid transit or even a proto light rail for the blue island or south Chicago/93 street branch. the main rapid transit line will go to harvey. express commuter services will run to university park south bend and even Kankakee
I live in NYC and the trains are different here. It’s a little frightening that the train lines have no rails on the outside of the trains/rails. The trains are really close to the edge 😱
It’s just less space for employees to walk/stand in the clear, it has absolutely no effect on how the trains ride upon the rails or track structure integrity.
Wait until you ride MARTA...
At one time all the BMT elevated lines looked like this.
4:56 "Little Englewood". B&O trains (among others) used to stop there.
Closed in 1978
It a shame there's not a lot of development around these CTA stations.
In "86-"87 I preached the Gospel on the el's from 95th to Adams & Wabash and back DAILY! I worked at EPA on Dearborn. What an experience! GLORY!

I nickname the green line the ghetto line lol cause outside of the downtown area or oak park it traverses some of Chicago's most deprived neighborhoods
Why don't they reopen Racine Ave?
I catch this train to go downtown 😂
I've been over here before
From my time in Chicago, I took a pretty good amount of blue and red line, orange line a few times to and from midway airport... some brown line. Where does this green line go? Directly west from downtown? Is that the eisenhower?
West side is one part of chi I never been to at all, heard some things
No nevermind whatever that was wasn't the ike
It goes to Harlem as an El west from the Loop, mostly along Lake St. Hence the former name was the Lake St Elevated.
what happened to Racine Ave station?
ThePandaTrain7 it was shut down but due to cost the CTA keep the station closed
Green line extension? its awfully short
It's actually about 21 miles long. This video isn't showing the entire line.
Also i keep seeing railway workers everywhere
From the looks of the crowds, I'd say these were filmed on a Sunday.
Most of these videos are filmed on saturday and sunday. There is no rush hour periods. They should do one during the week during rush hour so we can get the purple line express.
Wow, they reopened the comments section! I guess you need thick skin to live in Chicago...
And the 5000 series are very fast and have motor sounds let alone the 2200 series the 2600 series and the 3200 series
Why don't you film the green line all the way to Harlem lake instead of Garfield I know you still use them and moderate them to look like a modern CTA train
There is another video that goes from Garfield to Harlem/Lake
@@BobMocarski why leave it 2 months
@Oforid222 This is the first time i have see this video
@@BobMocarski yh I bet you have
not
Do u have any mature replies or are you just a drama queen?
