	Red Line (Chicago Transit Authority) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The northern terminus of the Red Line is Howard Street in the Rogers Park neighborhood of Chicago (7600 N. - 1700 W.), on the City Limits farthest north.
		The Red Line then tunnels beneath the expressway interchange between 28th and 30th Streets and continues southward now occupying the median strip of the Dan Ryan Expressway (Interstate 90 and 94).
		Thus, on February 21, 1993 the Howard line was combined with the Dan Ryan line creating the present Red Line, and the Lake Street line was paired with the Englewood-Jackson Park lines to form the Green Line.

		Beyond the station is a rail yard used for storage of off-duty trains, and the CTA has long-term plans to extend the Red Line southward to 106th Street, providing rapid transit access to Chicago State University and Olive Harvey College.
