Over the years, this holiday tradition has evolved from its modest and humble beginnings to a spectacular, joyous sight to see – in daytime or nighttime. The train began on the Blue Line in 1992 when a “Season’s Greetings from the CTA” sign was placed on the front of an out-of-service train used to deliver food to various charities. What few may realize is that the train serves two very important purposes: to deliver joy and the holiday spirit to thousands of riders and also to deliver food baskets to various charitable agencies throughout the city.
The holiday Bus will return for the 2023 holiday season.
The Holiday Bus was scheduled to travel the #29 State and #J14 Jeffrey Jump routes – the last of 16 routes served this holiday season. Due to the severe winter weather conditions and frigid temperatures that are expected, the CTA has made the difficult decision to cancel the last two runs of the Holiday Bus – both Thursday and Friday.
