Chicago eyes 15-minute O'Hare-to-downtown express rail
Private, 15-minute O'Hare Flyer express rail would use existing freight rights-of-way to connect O'Hare Terminal 2 with the Old Post Office on Van Buren Street, delivering a roughly 15-minute ride from the Loop—about 30 minutes faster than the CTA Blue Line. Funded privately with no government funding, the project aims to begin within five years and use battery-electric trains for a quiet, fast trip.
