jesi2282 Posted September 20, 2009 Report Posted September 20, 2009 Has anyone noticed that a lot of Blue Line trains coming from O'Hare have been displaying Pink "Loop" signs?, today I was near Bryn Mawr/Syre and every train coming from O'Hare had a Pink "Loop" sign displayed. Quote
nflyer22 Posted September 21, 2009 Report Posted September 21, 2009 The trains are used to signify that they aren't necessarily going to Forest Park, since they are just going to end at Clark/Lake due to the slow-zone removal project. After all, they don't have a blue "Loop" sign to use, though it would be confusing for certain tourists who have never been to Chicago coming from O'Hare wondering if they somehow got onto a Pink Line train.

trainman8119 Posted September 21, 2009 Report Posted September 21, 2009 When they were working on the west leg on the Kennedy, many trains were using green "Harlem" signs when that is as far as they were going. Just a matter of using what they had available. Quote
pudgym29 Posted September 29, 2009 Report Posted September 29, 2009 Blue Line trains have a "Jefferson Park" aspect as well, which I have glimpsed sporadically, particularly during the O'Hare track renewal. I think there must be a specific setting for that even on the 2200s. I want to scribe that the classification lights are green and amber. Quote
