L Structure

Recently I googled Gun Hill Rd and White Plains Rd in the Bronx. I haven't been over there in about 20 years, but the el structure has the same green paint scheme that I remember from even 33 years ago. Even the el structure along 10th Ave looks the same as I remember from 33 years ago.

IIRC, Chicago had a similar paint scheme on its L structure in the late 60s and early 70s, but went silver, and now tan, with dark brown downtown. I noticed the Green Line structure north of 35th, and between Roosevelt and 18th is still silver %and rusted).

Probably as good a place as any:

The Sun-Times blog notes that on the CTA agenda is making the Quincy station accessible. I wonder if they will use scroll gold leaf letters on the up and down buttons on the elevator? Update: From the actual agenda, it is TIF money.

Also work on the tracks on the elevated portion of the Milwaukee Blue Line.
