2600s At Mayfair

An eight car train of "2600-series" rapid transit cars has just passed under the Milwaukee Road North (C&M) Line, near Mayfair Crossing. The presence of the crewman in the train’s cab indicates that it is operating "opposite main". I believe, however, that I shot this photo immediately after I took this one www.flickr.com/photos/52209513@N03/45363577254/in/datepos… so it’s possible that the crewman was deadheading.

This section of what is now the Blue Line occupies the center of the Kennedy Expressway and was opened in 1970.
