That already happened, last June, with the establishment of the Pink Line. Most service to Cermak/54 now operates from the Loop, over the Green Line to Paulina, then via a much-refurbished Paulina Connector to reach the old Douglas Park branch at just south of the Eisenhower Expressway. A few weekday rush hour trains continue to run through from 54/Cermak to O'Hare via the Blue Line. Chicago's next heavy rail extension (albeit a short one) is already under construction, the downtown airline terminal station on a new one-block diagonal subway connecting the Blue Line at Dearborn and Randolph with the Red Line at State and Washington.
