- The Chicago Express Loop is a proposed privately funded urban rail transit rapid transit system that will use underground high-speed rail to connect the Chicago Loop to O'Hare International Airport from Block 37. The line will be constructed by Elon Musk's The Boring Company and will use 16-passenger self-driving vehicles built on Tesla chassis. The vehicles will move through tunnels at speeds as high as 150 miles per hour on a concrete track and complete the journey in 12 minutes, which is 3 to 4 times faster than existing alternatives such as the Chicago Transit Authority Blue Line. The vehicles will be referred to as skates and are based on the Tesla Model X. The vehicles will cover an 18-mile (29 km) track with eight guiding wheels, including four traditional grounded wheels and four additional side wheels. The Boring Company will pay the costs for the construction of the system in exchange for the rights to the future transit fees as well as advertisement, branding and in-vehicle sales revenues. Chicago Express Loop is the official name of the plan. The vehicles will depart as often as every 30 seconds. (en)
