"Taking the EL to Evanston" Top 5 Page for this destination Evanston Transportation Tip by TRimer

Both the Purple Line and the Red Line EL go from downtown to Evanston. The Purple Line runs express to and from downtown Chicago during rush hour on weekdays. At all other times, Evanston riders must transfer at Howard Street to the Red Line, which runs between Howard and downtown Chicago. There is usually a short wait at the Howard Street stop and I always remember the strong smell of tar at this stop.
