CTA Green Line

[jamie201120]

the green line sucks its dangerous one year the train went of the track because the tracks were to old the train could have exploded

[TheIronAirship]

I use to live very very close to the sixty third street station near Ashland Avenue. I remember when the Sixty third street station was built. Many a time did we take this route to Downtown as a child.

[MrDwb721]

@tc41986...that is the world famous 58th st station, where my little 4 year old brother got off after getting left behind downtown. LOL

[tc41986]

is that an abandon station at 3:43? or does the CTA still do the skip stop?

[germxv]

lol, soliciting and gambling are not gonna fly. check out audio at 6:30

[HENHENSUBWAYFFREAK]

I noticed that all green lines in all cities go to the bad part of the city

[HENHENSUBWAYFFREAK]

I've been down to East 63rd on a sunday morning, It is pretty freaky down there all though the train was empty. And i live in DC the subwary here has so many problems and is so expensive. I also remembering it going faster than this

I can't believe Chicago doesn't have any express tracks like here in NYC and I thought they had more cars then the 4 cars i see in Chicago?

[Amtrak1194]

@ranus69 we do but its not like the subway its an elevated section running from the loop (center of downtown) to the Howard transfer station where you can catch the Skokie shuttle or the Evanston trains. The Evanston line runs on the express tracks and shares with the Brown line for a stretch (evanston is purple, skokie shuttle is yellow). We run a max. of 8 cars in normal service. Perhaps you saw a weekend train with 4 cars.

[Jabbajawz4life]

@ranus69 It all depends on the time of day and what line you are on. This I'm sure was a day where there wasn't a large presence of people. Usually you will see 8 cars (max) on a train.

[uptowndc]

Man, these subways literally cut through buildings and neighborhoods at such a close proximity. Here in D.C., our subway is about half underground and the rest either at grade (on the surface) or elevated (but not through neighborhoods though)

[Angel7black]

wow... i've mean on a Light rail in L.A. that moved faster than this train...

is it just the green line that moves this slow? i'm a native new yorker and are trains seem to move way faster than this, no offense, maybe its just a bad line

[josephvanorsby78]

@Angel7black i say the blue line goes fastest, it goes 65mph on the street, elevated, and subway and it goes through neiborhoods really close to houses.

[josephvanorsby78]

@Angel7black i say the blue line goes fastest, it goes 65mph on the street, elevated, and subway and it goes through neiborhoods really close to houses like 3-5 feet away

[Amtrak1194]

@josephvanorsby78 Blue line trains are not allowed to go more than 55 just like on any other CTA line and on Elevated they can not run at more than 40

[josephvanorsby78]

@Amtrak1194 i ment to say 55, anyways like i said in your other video, my uncle operates cta trains and the fastest they can go is 60 mph or the speeding alarm will go off.

[josephvanorsby78]

@Amtrak1194 and they can go 55 max on the elevated.

[Amtrak1194]

@Angel7black on the elevated the trains are not permitted more than 40 at max but I'm not sure about the green line. (Green line is the southwest side and I live on the north side).

[raves11]

did you see ene gangs at king drive and cottigh grove

[howardkevinm]

Eventually Chicago will upgrade there tracks so they can actually go faster than 25mph down the track lol. 

[JohnyBravoSix]

Cool!

Just add:&fmt=18 after url page and you can see it in better quality ;)

[Grigoriy137]

I liked the Chicago subway! Thank you!

[50Cent507]

how expensive is it to live in the decent areas because i was thinking of moving there when i got out of high school for college

[Nekosys]

Chicago is nice all around!!!!!!!

[jigsawrap]

i like the KING DRIVE STOP !

SO WASSASSSP PLATAZ

[compdude47]

Smoking, eating, and littering are prohibited on CTA vehicles.

[Stamolka1986]

I live a few blocks north of the Green Line, but oh my frigging gosh, do I hate it! Wherever I am going, I usually take the bus to the Orange Line station, and take the Orange Line to my next destination. I have heard too much horrible BS about the Green Line and actually seen some BS, and I wasn't exposed to the settings which those who live near the Green Line have been exposed to, so the Orange Line is for me, while the Green Line is not!

[DaFaceManXXX]

The Formmer Jackson Park-Howard Route

[gtaguy1217]

NYC subways are kool and they almost have the same name like MTA (NYC) CTA (chicago i guess)

[chitownbound]

DERAAAAAAILLL!!LOL

[kes1963]

Compared to the video i've seen of the Philly El tracks, Chicago's look great

[theboyandhiswand]

yeaaa Chicago is soooo swweeet

[reeko14]

we are there no guards around 5:45

[dpv823]

What do you mean?

[reeko14]

like here in philly there is something to block the train if it derails

[MisterChavv]

you mean a catwalk.

it's not for blocking the train if it derails, it's for track workers to use when trains are passing.

in chicago the catwalk is the metal walkway between the two tracks, they also have catwalk boxes where the track workers can stand, you see it at 05:34.

[hellomynameisraise]

im always the only white kid on the green line, ahahaha.

[CTAismylife]

When I took the Green Line as a student in the late 80s/early 90s, it was the Howard-Englewood-Jackson Park line, also referred to as the "North-South Route." Not only was I the only white kid on the train, but I couldn't take it when it wasn't rush hour. When I took it early in the morning or late at night, I was at risk. I got mugged nineteen times in four years.

[DaFaceManXXX]

I forgot too It was the North-South Route Englewood-Howard the A train, and Jackson Park-Howard B Train. Is too they torn down Jackson Park over there at Stony Island

[DaFaceManXXX]

I forgot too It was the North-South Route Englewood-Howard the A train, and Jackson Park-Howard B Train. I was saying that they torn down Jackson Park station over there at Stony Island

[EXPLICIT210]

[chingonm1]

[DELTA1978THETA]

[sme19]
