A Ride on the Chicago ‘El’

A Ride on the Chicago ‘El’

My time-lapse ride to school on the Chicago ‘El’, specifically the CTA Green Line from the Illinois Institute of Technology to the Loop (Downtown).

This train line was part of the original train line built in 1893 to serve the World Columbian Exposition.
