Which do you prefer? Chicagoans rate the best, worst CTA train seat
We asked Chicagoans to rate the best and worst CTA train seat, and why. The answers might surprise you.

CHICAGO (WLS) -- It's a decision we all make when we step onto a CTA train: "Which is the best seat?"

Choices on Chicago's "L" range from the single seats, inside seats next to a window, aisle seats, and then the seats with your back to the wall that are typically "priority seating."

ABC7 Chicago asked Chicagoans what CTA seats they say are the best and worst, and the answers might surprise you.

The CTA serves an average of 1.6 million riders along eight different routes on any given weekday, according to the transit agency.
