A major draw is access to downtown Chicago. Visitors will take CTA & Metra to our areas (Evanston, Skokie, Glenview, Wilmette, Northbrook) But usually do not transfer to buses. They 8 would very much use expanded rail. STK 7 Switching modes of transportation would seem to a much less-preferred option. The assumption would be the rail line would continue north, making it a much more 9 viable option for those utilizing the system. STK 7 10 How will pedestrians bridge to major destinations such as the mall, Holocaust Museum, or the schools?

Chicago “L” Train Ride Quality Study
Lansmont Corporation’s Chicago “L” Train Ride Quality Study A demonstration of technology immediately available for effective measurement, assessment and improvement of transport environments. Page 1 of 19 www.lansmont.com In preparation for Pack Expo International 2006 Lansmont chose the famed Chicago Elevated (“L”) Rail Lines to help demonstrate newly available Lansmont technology that can be used to measure, compare and quantify the level of hazard or harshness present within transport environments. Railcars not only carry passengers on regional and local commuter lines; they also transport many of the products we eat, drink, and use on a daily basis as consumers. Those products move from the point of manufacture to locations of general distribution and/or use. Some products move 3,000-plus miles from central Mexico to the Eastern seaboard of the United States. Other products may move nearly 1,200 miles from Shanghai China to developing industrial areas on the Tibetan plain such as Chengdu. Given the volume and value of those products, it’s imperative that manufacturers clearly understand the hazards present within those specific routes of transport. Subsequently those manufacturers must demonstrate that a well-balanced combination of robust product and package design will protect those products during transport. Validation of both product and package design is performed in the laboratory by simulating the hazards in controlled performance tests. Successful results provide the manufacturers with high assurance that they can deliver quality products to the various points of destination and end customers without risk of loss or damage. Page 2 of 19 www.lansmont.com Lansmont used their SAVER 9x30 Field Data Recorder along with companion SAVER GPS-Logger to measure key Chicago “L” ride quality metrics including: ⇒ Individual Bumps Occurring on Each of 8 “L” Lines.

Chicago, 1996
Scooping the Loop CHICAGO, 1996 Chicago Transit Authority “Loop” elevated tracks—Lake & Wabash, downtown Chicago [UPDATE: October, 2008—As I gradually go back over my old travelogues, I’ll be leaving the original text intact but adding additional comments in boldfaced enclosed in brackets to expand on what was originally said. I’ll also add some additional scanned photos to enhance the original travelogues.] [This trip was a definite first. While I’d been to Chicago before, this was the first time I’d really made the city my destination and spent a significant amount of time there all at once. I’d return almost countless times. Six years later, when a former student of mine was playing minor league baseball in Beloit, Wisconsin, I’d spend day after day in the city and night after night at the ballpark in Beloit. I’d also head east several times after our family Thanksgiving get-togethers in Iowa City, and I’d return on my own, with family members, and with the quiz bowl team, for both weekend getaways and lengthy visits. Today I know Chicago about as well as I know any place on earth, and taking the CTA ‘L’ is second nature to me. That wasn’t true in 1996, though, and this trip was something very new for both Margaret and me.] This trip was definitely a departure for me. Never before have I done a vacation that was centered exclusively in one city. In the window between the end of my classes at Iowa Lakes Community College and the beginning of the school year at Bishop Garrigan High School, my sister Margaret and I planned to spend five days in a single place—Chicago.
