Especially that purple lighting, that'd get annoying real quick. I'm glad for the wifi & chargers though. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand Pulse is every 10 min peak, 15 min midday/weekend, and 20 min evening. Seems the big cut is those who ride the 270 north of Golf Mill, the peak service is going from 30 min to 60 min.

Each CTA rail line has a NAME which happens to be a color. Each Metra Line has a NAME like BNSF or North Central. If you are boarding at Union Station, you look for the name to see which track it boards on. Each CTA and Pace bus route has a ROUTE NUMBER AND NAME i.e 63 63rd or 270 Milwaukee. So even if it is a pulse, or BRT, it should come with a route number, like P270 or 270X, with a name like Milwaukee Pulse. Remember the Pulse service will expand next to Dempster with eyes toward Harlem, Halsted, and 95th in the future. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand All Pace routes (so far) have a number, even if it is not used in Pace’s marketing materials. The Schaumburg Trolley is 905, and all the On Demands are numbered as well (mostly in the 590’s). His question is whether Pulse routes will similarly have a unique number, which hasn’t been identified yet. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Routes externally don’t necessarily need a number for it to matter. There will likely be an internal number that planners and analysts will use, but to the usual eye, it’s Pulse.
