What happened to the terminal at Irving Park and Neenah? It was removed just last year or so, does anyone know what happened to it. I only recall seeing a #80...

A few assignment dates: 12/02/50 - Logan Square all 6000's 03/19/51 - Ravenswood to 6000's in base (but NOT in owl!) 10/11/52 - 6000's all base on North-South,...
Horses were used for owl service on cable lines until electrification, so it would not be implausible that a major failure in a cable might have "horse...
Neenah loop was used by #80 until it was extended out to Harlem, also by #86 before it started going to Montrose. Also #80W to Cumberland or Schiller Park. Was...

The cold hard fact is that Green Line IS a second-rate line. South end is the weakest segment in the system, and that is sad to say not likely to change. If...
When I was young (early 60's), we lived at Pulaski and Fullerton. Went downtown usually one of two ways: Most often - #53 to Lake St and train to Loop. All...
