It is a mere 4 days until New Year's Day, and as usual this time of year, I am waiting for the 2019 Chicago Transit Authority Historical Calendar to arrive. It is produced annually by the CTA to either keep on your computer or print out the pages and put on your wall, and each month has really great historical photographs of Chicago (transit related, but great none the less). I find myself checking their web site daily to see if it is there yet (https://www.transitchicago.com/historicalcalendar/), but so far only the 2018 calendar is there. In any case, they have a flicker account with many of the photographs from the calendars on display. Be sure to check it out at https://www.flickr.com/photos/ctaweb/sets/72157628053998640/. The photograph above, by the way, is of a South Side Rapid Transit train, probably taken around the time I was growing up back there. No wonder I feel old.
