What a week! We finally got through all of our photos from the Soul of Chicago Express tour that Tony Coppoletta magnificently hosted last Sunday. The tour started out up at the Wilson Red Line station and went all the way down to the Green Line Ashland/63. At each of these stops Tony talked to us about the history of the station. We then went to the Quincy Loop stop and the Kedzie Blue/Pink Line Station. The tour was extremely well planned and thought out. We have to applaud Tony for getting everything right on his first try! We were part of the sold-out private tour and we also provided snacks for everyone. If you missed the fun, don't worry. Tony says he'll be hosting another tour, probably in the spring or summer. For now, check out our photos on Flickr and everyone else's 370+ photos there too.
