Posted by Jackson Park B Train on Mon Apr 9 17:57:30 2018, in response to Re: $787K Study Seeks to Find Ways to Encourage Subway Riders to Ride LIRR and MNRR, posted by Olog-hai on Mon Apr 9 15:28:17 2018. IC fares on the Electric were subject to the Illinois CC, not the Feds. And from my recollection fares did rise. (I was a regular rider until leaving Chicago in late 65) As to "regulation" service frequency shrunk in the 60s nearly with each TT issue. The major problem was the shift to the Dan Ryan Expressway--the day it opened the IC and RI together lost 5k riders. And then in terms of the So Chicago Branch--the MLK assassination riots/arson devastated the neighborhood which has not recovered to this day. Non-existent residents don't travel. |
