Some awesome photos from last year are there, too, including the one to the left. The Holiday Train will be back on the Red Line on December 15th and 17th.
I rode this last season (completely by accident) from 55th to Wilson. It was definitely the most fun I've had on my commute. I called the other half when we were pulling in to Sherdian so he could see us. It looks like a toy train from our house.
ReplyDeleteIf you want to get a seat, you need to be at either end (Howard or 95th). Even 2 stops down, the train will be standing room only, if not completely full.
ReplyDeleteIt's great (and cheap) fun for families with young kids.
JP, since you don't live in Uptown, a "Holiday" train up here often means "watch out as you exit the Wilson stop"
ReplyDeleteStarck, I've exited at Wilson after a Cubs game, so i know what you mean.
