Ever wonder what it would be like to see Chicago as if you were a CTA train operator? In 2014, the Chicago Transit Authority released its most popular video series, “Ride the Rails,” a collection of videos highlighting CTA’s eight rail lines, each seen from the perspective of the rail operator. Since its release, “Ride the Rails” has garnered nearly 3 million views worldwide.
A lot has changed in five years: two new stations have been built (Washington-Wabash and Cermak-McCormick Place), two stations have been rebuilt (Wilson and 95th/Dan Ryan), and one station has been retired and demolished (Randolph/Wabash).
For the series’ 5th Anniversary, CTA is releasing an update to “Ride the Rails,” which you can view in both real-time and time-lapse versions. All eight lines have been recaptured from the operator’s perspective, this time in stunning 4K video. The CTA recorded the ride at various times of the day, including sunrise and sunset, and morning and evening rush hours. You’ll even learn facts about the CTA system in the real-time version.
So, hop aboard and enjoy the ride!

Luv in it! CHICAGO! Get a hold of old Farley Jack Master Funk and have him do a night time mix.

I think this is actually 7pm not 7am. Can't drive toward the 🌞 at Clinton, Morgan, Ashland... Central, Austin, etc unless the sun is setting (West).

[@CTAConnections]

There's actually two different times: Cottage Grove to Garfield which was taken at 7:39 AM (sun is in the east), and then at 1:20 the video begins again from Ashland/63rd to Harlem which was taken at 6:20 PM.
