Today we are traveling on the CTA Green Line in Chicago. This line runs over the oldest tracks of the entire Chicago L network. Our destination is King Drive station, the leastused station on the entire system. At King Drive, the outbound platform is for customers leaving the train only: there is no way to board the train here! But why is that? Find out in this video!
