All due respect but as a retire cta motorman and lifelong railfan I disagree. When I was younger I always thought the 3rd rail everywhere, not just Chicago was uncovered, until I started traveling and noticed that everywhere else in North American all rapid transit systems with the exception of Chicago and Boston had covered 3rd rail. Covered 3rd rail is much safer. Do I think it's a priority to cover them? No. But all future cta rail car expenditures should have a pancake 3rd trolley shoes, similar to the 2200 series. |
