The Holiday Bus Hits The Road! (In Uptown Friday & Saturday)

The CTA's Holiday Train gets more press, but we love the Holiday Bus even more. It ran the #92 Foster route tonight, and it will be in Uptown Friday and Saturday.*

The interior is cheery and carols play throughout the ride.

CTA elves give out candy canes and help you with photos of Santa...

... whose workshop takes up the back part of the bus. We saw a lot more adults than kids waiting for photos with the Big Guy.

Some of the very nice people who make the Holiday Bus so much fun to ride.

* Its Uptown schedule is:

Friday, December 1st: Clark #22 line. 12:30pm SB from Howard Red Line station to Harrison/Clark then continuing back NB. Photo session: @ Howard Red Line approx. 4pm-5pm

Saturday, December 2nd: After a run to Skokie and Old Orchard on the #97 route, back to the #22 Clark line. 3:40pm - SB from Howard Red Line station to Harrison/Clark via #22 route then continuing back NB.

The entire December schedule is here (running through December 23 all over the city).
