Photo of the day: You can ride the Cubs World Series champs train to a game at Wrigley Field
Before this past fall's victory over the Indians, the last time the Cubs were even in a World Series was 1945 -- two years before the Chicago Transit Authority was created.
So, when the Cubs play the Dodgers at the home opener on Monday, the CTA wanted to make sure it was ready with a completely Cubs-ified train car to celebrate the historic occasion.
Though the train car, with a large 'W' on the side, has been running since this fall, Monday is the first time fans could ride it to a game. For any Chicago natives who want a chance to ride in the car, the CTA is being especially helpful:

We're going to guess these cars are going to be jam-packed. And, for the first time in transit history, no one is going to complain.
