Although I left Chicago in 1976, I still consider it to be my home town. It was a real treat for me to watch this video. You are a talented videographer.
I appreciate your comments! I think Chicago is one of the best cities in the US. The neighborhoods that the Brown Line run through are really pretty and unique.
I feel bad that the video is not HD yet. I should wait to release videos in the future until RU-vid fully renders the video in HD. Thanks for watching.
Thank you! When I saw the brilliant red sky, I knew I wanted to film it and put it in a video someday! It was amazing and the sunset was so short lived, just a couple minutes later it wasn't as amazing.
The Ravenswood line is how I got around growing up. Francisco was my old stop, a fairly quiet and rinky dink station back in the day. Wooden and usually painted white with and orangey-red trim. I can't count all the times I would saunter along the gravel between the tracks to scale the little service ladder at the end of the platform and ride without paying. Having gone to strict Catholic schools my whole life, I guess it was my teenage way of being 'bad.' My mom sold the house in Ravenswood Manor more than 15 years ago now, and I live across the country, but this video took me back.
loving your adventures 🍸 outdoor metros are simply the best, if not by next year then supposedly by 2022 we'll have our own, although the trains'll be fully screened at stops
I'm sad the video isn't in HD yet. Soon though. This is the neighborhood I live in, so I get lots of exposure to it, riding and also walking along the track. I would love to make a video of the rest of the Brown Line, and also the Green Line and Orange Line. I should spend a few days walking along those routes.
I love Chicago! i'm a Filipino and we've been for a year only but I must say that this is a beautiful city. I even posted my video too when we walk by the Lake, in Downtown and our first ever Boat Tour. You can check it out too. We were amazed!

The CTA is noisy, so maybe neighbors would appreciate soundproofing walls. I'm really glad they don't do that because it would not look good. Many highways in Chicago have soundproofing walls along it.
@@gradientgamer5480 I hope so, but it’s not likely that a once or twice a year traveler will complain about a bus. They will just think it’s normal. If COVID hadn’t happened, I’m pretty sure the train would be open by now.
