Please note

Sorry, we don't have images or video for this item.

A dizzying, poetic ride through the city on an elevated railway that today exists only in memory. The El was noisy, ponderous and rickety - a leftover from earlier times, but by exploring the train, its passengers, movements, colours and images we find that it had its own unique beauty.
