Who's Coming To Chicago |

Posted by ChicagoPCCLCars on Wed Apr 23 00:05:36 2014 Skokie Swift 50th Commemoration I just got the details for Saturday's (April 22) Skokie Swift 50th anniversary event. It will be held at the Skokie-Dempster station starting at 11:00 AM and running until around 2 PM or so. The CTA's two 4000 series historic cars will be operating every 25 minutes. The cars will follow normal service cars as a second section. They will run to Howard, turn around in the track #5 pocket without unloading or loading at Howard, and run back out to Skokie. It's not yet known whether the cars will stop at Oakton-Skokie, too, but I'm pretty sure they will. You won't be able to get off or on at Howard Street. Regular CTA rail fares apply, but your monthly pass will work, too. CTA will hand out two different buttons, one with current CTA logo and one with the old 1964-vintage "Metropolitan Transit" CTA logo. |
