Railcar Facility Project Completed

A massive factory on the South Side is building the CTA trains of the future, and they’ll be on the tracks sooner than you might think. China-based CRRC Sifang America has a $1.3 billion contract to build more than 800 new 700-series rail cars for the CTA at a new $100 million factory at 135th and Torrence.
