On Tuesday, we featured the 147th challenge to see how well you know the Metro system. Here are the answers. How’d you do?

This week, we got 19 guesses. Six of you got all five. Great work Jay H, AlexC, kk, ArlFfx, Justin…, MtPDC!

This week’s common thread was Chicagoland. Each of these stations has a similar name to a station on Chicago’s CTA L or the commuter rail system, Metra.

The hint was two-fold, with one referencing Chicago’s first album, Chicago Transit Authority, and the other referencing one of Metra’s ads, “The way to really fly.”

Great work, Dave Stroup, for identifying the theme!

Image 1: Morgan Boulevard

The first image shows an exterior view of Morgan Boulevard station from outside the entrance. This glassy station shares a name with the Morgan station on CTA’s Green Line.

This station is one of three Gull II stations opened in 2004, and it shares common elements with the other two. This is the only one that has it’s mezzanine above the platform.

Sixteen of you knew this one.

Image 2: Wheaton

The second image shows the passageway between the two platforms at Wheaton and the escalator shaft. In this image is looking toward the Glenmont platform, with the escalators to the left.

While Wheaton and Forest Glen are similar stations, the key difference is that Wheaton has a much wider passageway, whereas Forest Glen has a narrower passage with elevators on either side.

Wheaton is also a station on Metra.

Sixteen of you got this one right.

Image 3: Addison Road

The third image shows a view from the entrance of Addison Road. This station is one of the “General Peak” stations, but it’s one with a rare end-of-platform entrance above the platform. White Flint is similar, but, the mezzanine canopy is very different.

Addison is a station on two different CTA L lines, the Blue and Red lines.

Fourteen of you figured this one out.

Image 4: Forest Glen

The fourth image shows the mezzanine at Forest Glen, looking in from the street. The brick exterior is quite unique in Metro’s mostly-Brutalist system.

Forest Glen is also a Metra station.

Fourteen of you guessed correctly.

Image 5: Clarendon

The final image shows the entrance at Clarendon station. The entrance has an intermediate level between the mezzanine and the street, where there’s a connection to 3100 Clarendon Blvd.

Additionally, the street entrance has two escalators flanking a stair. Stairs are pretty rare on Metro, so this should’ve helped you narrow it down.

Clarendon Hills is a Metra station.

Eleven of you came to the correct conclusion.

Great work, everyone. Thanks for playing! We’ll be back in three weeks with challenge #148.
