 I LOVE living in Chicago – it is such a fabulous city filled with so many fun and fantastic things! I will post a trivia question about the Windy City, and you will have a few minutes to answer – until I post STOP!!!. One answer per person, please! 50 points(or more) will go to a random winner drawn from the correct answers.

Chicago’s public transportation train system is more affectionately known as what?  :)

The "EL" or "L" - which is short for Elevated tracks......although there are some portions which are subway :)

50 points to jaziscrapper!

ETA: On a side note, I was on our local train the other day here in MPLS and some "gentlemen" behind me were talking about how big, complicated and F***ing fast the L is :-D  I thank them for the information now :-D
