13 December 2012, Day 191

After last evening's disappointment, I finally and unexpectedly encountered the CTA Holiday Train this evening at the Belmont Station. I didn't get on the train, but i got these great shots from the platform. I always wonder what it must be like for Santa and his elves to ride outside like this on a cold winter evening or to have to ride for miles through the dark, dank subway tunnels. I don't know any other city that does this; it's kind of crazy to suddenly have Santa show up at the peak of rush hour, but it's one of my favorite things!
