That is why the original Lake line had yellow and blue signs until it became the Lake-Dan Ryan line and got red and green signs.
Thanks for jogging my memory about Lake St. having the same yellow and blue /A\ and |B| signs before it was aligned with the Dan Ryan. It makes more sense now...

Anybody know what the third Pink Line curtain says? The obvious first two are LOOP and 54/CERMACK, but there's a third that I haven't been able to see yet.
