Los trenes de cuatro vagones regresan los fines de semana de verano.

En las líneas Azul, Café, Anaranjada y Púrpura, retomamos nuestra práctica habitual, anterior a la pandemia, de reducir la longitud de los trenes los fines de semana, cuando hay menos pasajeros. Todos los fines de semana, a partir de la madrugada del 6 de junio, los trenes se reducirán a la longitud de 4 vagones en estas líneas desde las 3:30 de la mañana el sábado hasta las 3:30 de la mañana
el lunes.

• Todos los fines de semana de este verano, excepto cuando haya eventos principales o obras de construcción en curso, los trenes se reducirán a 4 vagones. Los trenes más largos seguirán circulando cuando se espera un mayor número de pasajeros.

• Además, en la Línea Azul, que funciona las 24 horas, se pedirá a los pasajeros que bajen del tren en O’Hare y Forest Park para salir y volver a entrar en la estación, de modo que el personal pueda retirar los vagones de servicio de forma segura y para ayudar al personal a limpiar los vagones en las terminales.

Estos cambios nos permiten ofrecer un servicio más eficiente al reducir el desgaste de los vagones, aumentar la seguridad y protección y mantener los vagones más limpios.

En general, busque letreros en lo alto de las plataformas para su ruta que digan Embarque aquí (Board here) para asegurarse que está esperando en una parte de la plataforma donde los trenes siempre paran. Visite transitchicago.com/alerts/ para más información

Four-car trains return on summer weekends

On the Blue, Brown, Orange and Purple lines, we’re resuming our regular, pre-pandemic practice of reducing the length of trains on weekends where ridership is at its lowest.

  • Every weekend starting early on June 6, trains will be reduced to 4-car lengths on these lines from Saturday morning at 3:30am through Monday morning at 3:30am.
     
  • Each weekend this summer, except when there are major events or construction occurring, trains will be reduced to 4 cars. Longer trains will continue to run when high ridership is expected.
     
  • Additionally, on the 24-hour Blue Line, riders will be asked to leave the train at O’Hare and Forest Park to exit and re-enter the station so crews can safely remove cars from service and to help staff clean cars at the terminals.

These changes allow us to provide more efficient service by reducing wear and tear on train cars, greater safety and security and cleaner railcars.

In general, look for signs overhead on platforms for your route that say “Board here” to ensure you’re waiting on a part of the platform where trains always stop.
