Saturday's CTA Santa Schedule

With the sleet and ice storms predicted for Friday and Saturday, you've got to feel for St. Nick, riding the rails out in the elements.  But a jolly old elf's gotta do what he's gotta do.  Luckily, everyone else can ride inside the cars as the CTA's Holiday Train makes its final rounds of 2013.

Friday the train will be on the Purple Line, bypassing the stops in Uptown.  Saturday's a full day, with four trips between Howard and 95th (two in each direction) and photo opportunities with Santa at each end of the Red Line.

Check out the schedule here, which the CTA has finally put online.  That's it for the Red Line until next year.
