I've been told this was the blizzard of 1999. It snowed constantly. 3200 series equipment was assigned to the Green line. At Clark/Lake we watch as a Brown line train reloading the Loop.
I remember seeing and riding the Evanston Express cars on the Dan Ryan line when we had that deep freeze and snowstorm. I was still in high school and yes i had to ride them!
I made history by riding the first sb train into the new tunnel from Howard st to 95th st and back to Washington and State and took another sb train to Ashland/63rd, trains going both ways that day. It was fun.
I love your vintage CTA videos.

I remember when 63rd st was a "A" train stop. Garfield Blvd-55th st was a "B" train stop

What years are these videos from? Thank you! You rock!!
1999.
Love how you captured the CRIME TAPE early in the video...HC 3047. I've tried to explain this idea to employees hired after 2002
