What if you could hop on a train to O’Hare International Airport and it only took 15 minutes to get there? That’s the idea behind the O’Hare Flyer, a fast-rail connecting the Loop to the airport using existing railways from CSX and Union Pacific.

Leaders behind the project hope to get started next year.

In the Loop hears from the people who want to make the idea a reality. We also check in with a transportation expert about what this could mean for travelers.
