At last! The 2026 CTA (Chicago Transit Authority) Historical Calendar appeared just like clockwork on the CTA's website New Year's Day and is now available to be downloaded onto your computer. And I must say, I am pretty impressed with this year's edition. Nine of the calendar's twelve photographs are from the 1950s or earlier, which I feel makes it more interesting and historic, versus just four in last year's calendar. And one of the photos from the 1990s shows a bus in front of long gone Comiskey Park, where I frequently went to watch my South Side heroes, the Chicago White Sox, win a ballgame once in a great while. And by the way, the cover photograph on the left was taken of thirteen CTA buses caught in traffic on State Street, looking north from State and Monroe, and taken some time between the early 1960s and late 1970s, back when I was spending a lot of time walking and biking around the city. Be sure to download a copy of the 2026 edition of the CTA Historical Calendar at https://www.transitchicago.com/historicalcalendar/. You'll thank me for it.
