The J, Metra, CTA, Union Pacific, and how they relate.
Posted by Glen Ellyn on Saturday, October 30, 2004 4:35 PM
Look at the topic title. CTA announced recently that if they jack up prices, METRA won't be able to do it's future projects. Such as the Star Line that would be on The J.[^] The Union Pacific owns 1/3 of The J, and unfortunately, one day the Union Pacific will by The J.[V] I don't like the fact that the Union Pacific already owns 1/3 of The J, let alone the Union Pacific will propably buy The J.[V] I do like the fact, that CTA might jack up prices, and propably will, because if and propably when it does, METRA won't be able to be able to screw up The J.[^] I think alot of people like to see rare things.[;)] Like seeing any type of train on The J.[;)]
