At Addison, the line is elevated.It wasn't always the case with both ballparks being served by the same L train. Until today's Red Line was linked to the Dan Ryan portion of the former Lake-Dan Ryan route, you had to change trains downtown. Back in the days when streetcars ruled the Windy City, the 22 Clark-Wentworth route went right by both ballparks. So in essence, the 1906 World Series could have been called the "Streetcar Series." |
