Mass Transit in Chicago
The train system in Chicago is called the “El” as in elevated which is appropriate seeing the majority of the tracks are above ground. However, it’s weird not calling it the subway because everywhere I get on board requires descending, not climbing. At any rate, one of the busier stops in the city located in the “Loop.”
This always makes me think of the Blues Brothers apartment. They could almost reach out and touch the EL tracks from their only window. Jake asks Elwood,”How often does the train come by?” Elwood says,”So often you’ll hardly notice!”
