Enjoyed this video. I used to take the South Chicago branch to work when I got my first Job at the Lakeside Press in1960. I rode the Metra Electric university park line for 38 years. I moved to North Carolina in 1999. I'm 81 years old and can still call the stops on all 3 branches. The crews on Metra electric were my best friends. When I went to college at night they were all interested in my studies. At that time most had never gone to college. These .memories all come back to me when I watch these videos. I never realized that I could take vitual rides on my cell until I got a smart phone. They were the first videos I viewed. Guess I got lonely
Real Bell Sound
Metra really needs to step up their game when it comes to this line. There’s too many crossovers, curves, and slow zones!
I live 2 blocks away in South Shore. I take it bc its the only public transportation that allows me to bring my scooter.
I'ma steal your content next 😈😈😈
Took this same ride with another video 8 yrs ago. good to see what has changed and what's the same--Thanks for sharing
This bell noise would drive any train driver crazy
So it’s true American trains are no good! Slow
Imagine a full ride from Milwaukee to Chicago
ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding
Any passengers?
schönes Video, aber Warum läutet es ständig? Das geht einem ja gehörig auf die Nerven dieses ständige läuten.
It’s because we have a stupid policy in America that requires train to make a lot of noise so people know a train is coming. But I don’t know why Metra Electric has the bell on continuously
Tax Gas and raise Road Tax in highly urban Areas , subsidy public Trans. Ridership will rise.
Too many interference with streets, any 300 m a crossing. You Americans are so inefficient.
We🇩🇪call it noise pollution, too slow😆
it touches my memory. thanks for sharing this video!
Great Job.
Wow! Nice pot-hole. 😊
Thanks for the ride. 👍
Nice job man. I filmed a cab ride on this line too before but didn’t turn out as good.
There also used to be stops at 43rd Street and 31st street (Long gone)
Oh my god that Bell make it stop!!!
@russell7926: If you live right by or right near the tracks this bell can be really unnerving. It would be a real nuisance to hear this bell all night long and you're trying to sleep. I remember the old Dark Green IC PULLMAN STANDARD CARS have a bell that's like the trolleys of the New Orleans street cars that's like a school alarm that just be sounded occasionally such as when leaving stations.
Get use to it trains need to use the bell to let people know that they are coming don’t you get it?
Telling the bell to stop is like telling a bird to stop chirping 💀
@@DDLCANDRAILFAN92 It's necessary to keep sounding the bell in this middle of the street running. Part of the METRA ELECTRIC South Chicago Branch is very much like a Light Rail Line run with electric double Decker cars
@@albertcarello619 I know but thanks anyways
So many crossovers, no wonder the train will never get to speed before the next station.
Great Videos, Thanks!
This line passes right by the Home Alone house
Winnetka, as I recall.
Will you be riding the Metra Electric's Blue Island Branch too?
sometime in the next few weeks
@@BBBuilds12 cool
Very nice, keep it up.
It is amazing how few the built up areas between Kenosha and Winthrop Harbor!
1:27:35 Peterson Ridge (under construction)
I think it's opening up next year. I read they're building another station on the Rock Island Line in Auburn Park. There was a station there before but was taken out, now they're putting it back in
30:29 oh 'Deer' 😁 🦘
Why can we always hear the pneumatics for the bell but not the horn.
The north line is mostly quiet zones... He does use the horn in North Chicago at MLK drive (26:14)
Finally a good ride along for this line!
great ride 💯
my favorite line 🙂
Nice
