$30.00 – $80.00The Bay Area Rapid Transit system (BART) was, along with the WMATA in Washington D.C., one of the great centrally planned post-war rapid transit systems aimed at addressing the rise of the highway and auto-centric suburbs after World War II in the United States. Planning began in the 1950s for a unified high speed rail system that would serve both the dense inner cities of San Francisco and Oakland and their newly expanding low-rise suburbs. Stations would be spaced closer in the central business districts and further out in the suburbs.
Originally planned to connect Alameda, Contra Costa, Marin, San Francisco, and San Mateo counties BART was scaled back when San Mateo dropped out in favor of commuter rail service and the Marin line was dropped due to engineering concerns about running a rail line over the Golden Gate Bridge. Construction began in 1964 and the initial segments began to come online in 1972 and the majority of the system opening by 1974.
The Richmond-Millbrae Line, also known as the Richmond Line, was the fourth line to open in the BART system starting limited service in 1976. Because the Richmond Line shares its entire route with other BART lines it stops operations at 8pm on weekdays and 7pm on Saturdays. Originally terminating at Daly City the line was extended south in 2004 to SFO/Millbrae when that extension was opened sharing the line with the Pittsburg/Bay Point–SFO/Millbrae Line.

$30.00 – $80.00The Yellow Line was the fourth service of the Washington Metro to open and is today the shortest. Opened in 1983 connecting National Airport to Gallery Place the route acts as a bypass around downtown Arlington.
The route of the Yellow Line has deviated from the original planned route more than any other line. In December of 1983 the line was extended south to Huntington but was originally to run out to Franconia-Springfield (which didn’t open until 1997). A shortage of train cars caused this switch because the Yellow Line required fewer cars than the Blue Line which was routed out to Franconia-Springfield instead.
The Yellow Line was extended north to U St in 1991 but the final extension to Greenbelt was delayed because the original alignment along the median of the North Central Freeway was changed when that freeway was canceled. A new subway connection from U St to Fort Totten, the route subject to much controversy, was eventually opened in 1999 for Green Line service and in 2006 the Yellow Line was extended to Fort Totten.
Today the Yellow Line shares most of its route through Virginia with the Blue Line and all of its route through D.C. with the Green Line.

$30.00 – $80.00The Orange Line was the third leg of the Washington Metro to open, though service began running in 1978 as a one way service along the existing Blue Line from New Carrollton to National Airport. It wasn’t until a year later in 1979 that the Orange Line was extended out to Ballston when it began running in both directions. In 1986 the line was extended out to Vienna. Plans at the time to reroute the line through the fast developing Tysons Corner were eventually dropped to prevent a five year delay in construction.
These plans were resurrected with the Silver Line being built through Tysons Corner on its way to Dulles Airport. The Orange Line through Virginia runs along the median of Interstate 66 from Vienna to Falls Church. Originally the line was to run along the median of I-66 through Arlington but city planners rerouted it through downtown Arlington which helped stimulate dense residential development in central Arlington.
From Roslyn to Stadium-Armory the Orange and Blue lines share their downtown subway tunnel and split after ascending to the surface on a bridge over the Anacostia River. From here the Orange Line runs alongside the CSX/Amtrak ROW to New Carrollton.

$30.00 – $80.00The Red Line is the busiest of all the Chicago “L” lines. The oldest section opened in 1900 as part of the North Side Main Line and starts at Howard station. One of the few lines in the United States which runs 24 hours a day it is also part of the only 4 track express subway in the US outside of New York City. In 1947 the State St Subway opened and allowed North Side trains to connect to the South Side elevated which is part of the Green Line today.
In 1969 the Dan Ryan Branch opened along the Dan Ryan Expressway but originally was connected to the Lake St elevated. In 1993 the CTA reorganized their lines with a new color code and the Dan Ryan Branch was shifted to the Red Line for a true north-south line. The CTA is currently studying plans to extend the Red Line south to 130th St.
