CTA's Ride the Rails: Purple Line Real-time (2019) v1.1

[@micheledreams4771]

I can’t get over how long this ride is. I didn’t realize how big Chicago truly is! Boy do I have a lot of exploring to do when I move there! 😊

[@akis.4493]

This just goes downtown and back, never even comes near the south or west sides of the city.

[@carstarsarstenstesenn]

Lot's of great places to explore just make sure you do research on the area before you go and try not to go alone to stay safe

[@BenjaminWillis-24]

Purple Line Express only runs on weekdays rush hours only but after rush hour time it only just goes to Howard and back to Linden and on weekends the Purple Line only goes from Howard to Linden all day

Yup. Not counting transferring flights at O' Hare only been in Chicago a couple of time so far in my life. Most recent stay (not counting stopovers at O'hare)was in Summer of 2001. Stayed at a hotel right near the Rosemont Station on the Blue line's O'Hare branch. Did not get a chance to ride any of the Loop though sadly. Nice to finally view on a YT Video in a "real time "ride during a Rush Hour (looks like late summer/early fall when this video was taken). So basically I have only been on the Blue and Red Lines before. Next trip to Chicago I will ride the Loop no doubt. And hopefully visit for 1st time Wrigley Field too. As someone that was raised in NYC, the 4 Loop Line Trains reminds me of the NYC Subway's Lex Local aka the #6 line. Technically while the Downtown Manhattan Local "terminal" for the #6 line is the Brooklyn Bridge/NYC City Hall station, its makes a loop at a nearby Closed Station and then returns going towards it's Bronx Terminal in Pelham Bay Park. That loop on the Lex Local Line in NYC is done without a change of crew aka the Train Operator.

[@Bigbro28]

I would like to thank you once again for the safe and punctual rides with the CTA, which I was able to use every day during my stay in Chicago! Thanks to all the employees of CTA! Greetings from Fuerth, Germany!

There is now a flyover at the Clark interlocking before the Belmont station. Now the delays for crossover brown line trains are significantly reduced! On behalf of all of Chicago we do hope you'll visit again!

Probably your best presentation of the CTA, due to the length of the route, the sunny day and gorgeous scenery. Along with the winter night ride into Chitown through the snow, that's my other favorite guys! Keep up the wonderful photography!

I used to work in Evanston and sometimes after work I would ride this to the loop and then to Fullerton (this was before the Wilson station was completed) on the way back north then hop over to the red line to my stop at Granville just for the heck of it.

[@goodnyc]

From a former NYC subway rider, CTA is a great rail system. I like it a little more because they run mostly outside.

[@dubreil07]

NYC has more tracks outside based off miles. Thats just how big the nyc subway is

[@dalewunderlich]

CTA wooden platforms are a national treasure, and the Purple Line has its fair share.

[@nuyorican1985]

Chicago's CTA subway and the New York City MTA in my opinion are two of the best systems in the country. They may not be the newest, or the cleanest but they are definitely the best....

[@tomsuh1362]

Yes, I think NYC is also the cheapest because for $2.75 you can ride from one end of the line to the other end at the same price.

I am not from USA. My interest here is a railway cab view drive and this is the best of the best cab ride video that I have seen: quality camera on clean window, filmed on sunny day when driving away from sun, with interesting info that you can enjoy or switch off. It could not be done better. It should be used as a raw model for any future cab drive video - which I can dream only. For those who are thinking to do similar videos: Use this quality level as standard. And have in mind that you can ''only'' film video and publish it with no information added - beside the description of the departure and arrival city/location. You can than ask viewers to use open railway map to follow the ride. Stay well, drive safe.

[@williammunford476]

Wow great vidieo thank you 😅❤

[@karlpiepenburg3157]

I have a photo of a great great uncle who worked on this line way back in 1911. He’s posed on the front of wooden car number 10. Pretty cool how this line was built (in segments) at the beginning of the 20th century and is still vital today

[@Bobrogers99]

1949 was a big year for station closures. I note one long stretch where apparently four tracks were reduced to two.

[@karlpiepenburg3157]

When the Subway opened the need for four tracks wasn’t as great, and the end of the North Shore Line in 1963, which used the outer tracks, greatly reduced their necessity

[@louky264]

Honestly many of the stations needed to be closed as they were too close to other stations. And some of the '49 closures were restored decades later, notably Morgan and Skokie-Oakton in 2012

[@alabamared2568]

I used to drive to Indiana from Rockford once a day coming in on the Kennedy to the Ryan to the skyway and back I always seen the cta flyin center tracks on the Kennedy and Ryan but doing that route for almost 16 years I never explored Chicago I'm very impressed with the CTA and this purple line 💜 I'd wish many times stuck in traffic inbound or outbound whilst CTA was flyin by and there I sat...great video CTA!!!

But today's purple line express is not as fast as when I was a boy during the early 1960s, going from Evanston to my piano lessons in Chicago loop. Then, the rail cars "sang" and were made of WOOD, and the train made no stops between Howard and the Merchandise Mart. It was REAL express then!!!

Back in the day, this was the Evanston Express. It ran nonstop between Howard and Merchandise Mart. I remember wanting to ride on one years ago and my late aunt replied, "It doesn't stop anywhere!"

[@michaelbrinkers1145]

And back then, wasn't the Linden-Howard portion, electrified overhead....where the driver/conductor had to manually hook up/down a trolley?

[@8avexp]

@@michaelbrinkers1145 Yes, it was. That's why they kept a group of 4000-Series Plushies for as long as they did. Those cars had both third rail shoes and trolley poles. Once they installed third rail along the Evanston stretch, the last 4000s were retired.

[@michaelbrinkers1145]

@@8avexp And none of my younger friends believe me, when I said a portion of the Ravenswood (Brown Line), I believe west of Western, was also electrified overhead....but as a boy, I remember there was something different about this line....I even remember some of the cars painted red (instead of the standard yellow/green.

[@roygoodhand1301]

27:14 Noting that this Purple Line is about to pass the Addison/Wrigleyville station, an idea dawned on me: The Purple Express could be used as a overflow line to get Cubs fans to and from Wrigley Field to alleviate crowding on the Red Line before and after Cubs games.

[@tylerkochman1007]

It is used as that. But it stops at Sheridan instead, since Addison has no platform for the express tracks.

When the Red Line and Purple Line are too crowded, Downtown Cubs fans also have the option of riding the Brown to Belmont.

@Enmity the Kindhearted Elevated train lines are cheaper than subway train lines and beside tram lines they doesn't share the same track as automobile cars.

The four subway cities are Berlin and Hamburg and till the Olympic games in 1972 Munich and Nürnberg.

[@mic1240]

Rob F the CTA is subway, elevated and grade level throughout system. The commuter trains in Chicago area and last interurban in US (South Shore) are mostly ground level. This train starts in suburbs, some of L lines go to closer suburbs, some of which are very densely populated and more urban in feel.

[@NuyoRican-vm2kx]

@Enmity the Kindhearted that's because before the MTA became a united transit system it was 3 independent private companies. They built stations close to each other in order to steal each others riders. That's also the reason they have many rail lines. When they were independent companies they believed the more subway lines they had the more business they would get. However the MTA has removed many subway lines and stations from the systems height and left the ones people use the most. Right now however after years of not taking care of the system correctly it's in its current state. Just another example of someone believing someone else would fix the system in the future. Now the amount of money needed to fix the MTA fully will take billions and decades to fix. Which no government federal or state wants to truly take on.

NYC has a total of 21 lines

[@mic1240]

Chicago area has lots of other train transit, including electric rail, locomotive powered and last interurban in US. Overall, Chicago is rail hub of US and lots of train tracks (and train congestion) throughout city. I lived in NYC and MTA is for sure more expansive and covers more area by far. Chicago system has some pluses like ability to take trains directly into both city airports (no transfer hassles, etc). CTA is faster trains too, the CTA has been upgrading realizing old train lines from 1800s in some parts, need work...something NYC trying to do now with bigger system in need of lot of work. Like NYC trains both subway and elevated (and much of CTA is grade level too). Originally the CTA trains were not called/named by color and many people (mostly about 50 yo or older) still call them by their old names.

Wooden platforms in 2019? Really? At least your trains accelerate faster than NYC subway trains. I like the fact you got line indicators by the station sign. This is very helpful to know which line serves the station. I do notice that some sections could fit a fourth track, but has been converted for two track service only.

[@AmbientMorality]

They're working on it. The Red and Purple Modernization project will replace pretty much everything for the 1.3 mile segment starting around 20:30 in this video, including four Red Line stations with concrete, accessible (ADA) stations. Sheridan and Addison (25:40) should be redone as well, but that'll involve straightening out that corner by buying out property - and they don't want to deal with those complaints since they're already dealing with them for the Red-Purple Bypass (which builds out a flying junction so the Brown Line doesn't have to block all other train traffic like at 28:00).
