I would really like to ride in the old subway cars!
So then it's probably hard to actually catch it. I had thought there were multiple trains you could catch.
But yeah, the vintage trains are so much fun to ride. It feels like a step back in time seeing the ads and the old trains.

They do have a schedule on their web site of what lines its running when, and even a timetable ... which is usually slightly off but it's ok. I'm lucky to live on the Red Line, which is always the first line that it runs on, so that first weekend, I catch it as many times as I can.
Speaking of old subway cars, I'm going to the Illinois Railway Museum tomorrow because I'm such a nerd about trains.

Cool...If you ever go to NY, make a stop in Brooklyn and visit our transit museum. It's awesome seeing all the old trains and the other stuff they have.
