It’s time for some full-on train geekery! I had mentioned this on Twitter and it sounds like there are enough people interested that we’re going to get a group of folks together for it. What is it?
It’s the 2010 IRM Snowflake Special on the CTA!
This event is a fundraiser for the Illinois Railway Museum. For $43.00 ($42 + $1 handling fee), you can join us on Sunday, March 28 for a tour of the Chicago Transit Authority El lines. “Beginning at 9:00 AM at Rosemont station (River Road) on the Blue Line, the trip will travel on almost every line, plus lots of non-revenue and yard trackage.” There will be lunch stops in The Loop, and the train returns to Rosemont station at 6:00 PM.
Yeah, it’s a long day. But I figure it’ll be fun with a group, and if we get tired we can always bail and head back to Rosemont on our own. So…who’s interested?
