Today's Chicago Tribune has a story in the metro section that this summer the CTA will begin running most Cermak branch Blue Line trains over the recently rebuilt Paulina connector, completing their trips on the Green Line to the Loop elevated. Some trains will continue running using the existing route via the Dearborn St. subway and Kennedy Expy to O'Hare. Initially CTA will operate this way as a 100-day "experiment" with new express bus routes replacing lost service along existing routes.
