Living next to a class 1 mainline, I’m spent most my time watching and studying up on that stuff, but this looks awesome. I shall see you there!

I’m kidding. 🙂 I’m a little historic El junkie myself. Maybe I’ll be able to go.

This trip is a good trip. Hope you guys have fun!

No deadline really, since the trip will go on with or without folks 🙂 The only limitiation I can think of is how many seats they have available (unknown) and the fact that if you buy your ticket after March 20 you’ll have to pick it up from them at the Rosemont station instead of them mailing it to you.

I hope you can make it! This should be a fun trip.

It’s always fun to play “tourist” in your home city.

Oh, I’ve ridden it many, many times over the last 15 years. I understand that the quotidian usage is unimpressive. But considered from a historical and engineering perspective, I think the El can be pretty interesting*. That and the fact that this will be going to places I’ve never been able to see (or would dare to go unaccompanied) makes it worth it.

* 8 hours of interesting? Well, we’ll see 🙂
