Brown Line (CTA)

Common card · No. 436923

The Brown Line of the Chicago "L" system, is an 11.4-mile (18.3 km) route with 27 stations between Chicago's Albany Park neighborhood and downtown Chicago. It runs completely above ground and is almost entirely grade-separated. It is the third-busiest 'L' route, with an average of 35,176 passengers boarding each weekday in 2024. Before CTA lines were color-coded in 1993, the Brown Line was known as the Ravenswood Route; specifically, the section that runs from Belmont to Kimball is called the Ravenswood branch. Accordingly, the Kimball-Belmont shuttle service was called the Ravenswood Shuttle.
