Signs of the season-CTA Holiday Train!

December 1, 2011
By Jane Rickard

One of the great holiday traditions of Chicago visited our neighborhood the Chicago Transit Authority’s Holiday Train.  This train decorated with holiday lights and with an open carriage carrying Santa and his sleigh. The train is greeted at each station by families, children in strollers all looking to capture that special holiday photograph or video.

The train will return to our area tomorrow linkage to the full Brown Line schedule here. http://www.transitchicago.com/travel_information/holidaysched/20111202.aspx

It is a fitting way to start our Holiday images.
