Description

The Chicago Transit mailing list. Devoted to the discussion of trains, buses, transit, urban traffic infrastructure issues, the CTA/RTA, and Metra. All Chicago and its suburbs. Hidden and lost rail rail systems are rediscovered. Experts label mysterious outcroppings of rail in odd city backlots. Alternatives to official rail expansion proposals are brought up by studied experts as to how best use existing rail systems. Members analyze existing rail cars, how other cities use their stock, and compare rival manufacturers. The members are very aware of the Chicago area rail systems, past and present.

Frank Kennedy, list founder and moderator, and Larry Minnman, moderator.

Re: converting unlinked trips to ridership
The short answer is no, I don't know. On CTA my guess would be that a linked trip entails about two unlinked trips, on the average. BUT, and it's a big but --

Re: Man pushes for more disabled access (NICTD)
I doubt that Ms. Torres is correct in saying that a portable lift was at Beverly Shores for an extended period of time. I do remember when there was a bus link
