1. Everything except the downtown portions of the red and blue lines, and the blue line for a couple stops on the northwest side.

2. Yes, at area grocery stores and currency exchanges (and possibly airports).

3. I don't think you'll really get one, but on the orange line from Midway might be good.

I will be taking my first trip to Chicago (outside of ORD). I have a few questions about mass transit in the Chicago area.

1. What lines and what parts of the city is the train above ground as I like the above ground transit rather than the tunnels.

2. Can I buy a day pass to the Trains?

3. What is a good line to take and where to get a good view of the skyline while on the train?

Thanks
Ben
