Erin Mishkin Jr. 68 Report post Posted July 14, 2020 A couple more wrap info: I noticed there is a trend where some cars on the Green Line kept the wrap and others have it removed. This is not the case with the Crown Royal cars, but is a case with the GoPuff (as stated above), Mountain Dew, and the LG wraps. 5043 5044 5063 5064 still have Mtn. Dew but 5093 5094 no longer have it. Both of the trains with the green wraps still have them, and 5017 no longer has the LG wrap but 5083-4 still have it. 5149 and 5145 still have the old Vodka wrap, while 5194 has the new wrap. 3397 and 3398 have a Chicago colored wrap which is in the photo posted in this link. Crown Royal has been taking over Green and Pink for more than 18 months. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

There's nothing pleasant about that shade of Blue. You wanna make 'L' cars look like some emo teen's bedroom. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

At least I can live at peace knowing anything said on these forums will not change the interior color of the 7000s with a disgusting shade of Blue that looks like a messy kid's room. At least explain what's wrong with the Blue/gray interior on the 5000s. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MTRSP1900-CTA3200 409 Report post Posted November 27, 2020 I see parts of it have been picked away already...The wrap color is just WAY too harsh/jarring for an entire interior color fitting. It should just stay as a ad wrap. Though I also don’t care for that light blue on the later 5000s. If anything I would have applied the colors from the New Tech Trains on the NYC subway to the 5 and 7000s. For our older trains I personally like the beige because it’s been around for so long and I’m just used to it. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That deep blue is way too much and I am not a fan of the "Sears Restroom" shade of blue used on some of the 5000's. I'd vote for the interior used on the buses or something similar to the original 2200 light grey. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

geneking7320 73 Report post Posted December 1, 2020 Has CTA ever used wraps designed to get expressway drivers out of their cars and onto the 'L' ? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Generally speaking, wraps are for ads for CTA to raise money. I suppose CTA could use wraps to advertise but with the Red and Blue Lines running in the medians of expressways, I would think that would be advertising enough.
