This is an APRIL FOOLS JOKE! This announcement program does not exist.
This fictional announcement program is based on rare occasions with Red Line trains going "over the top". Anytime should the State Street Subway be closed off for maintenance or any unavoidable incident, Red Line trains have the ability to become rerouted on the elevated tracks between Cermak-Chinatown and Fullerton, while continuing to operate full trips. I decided to create an announcement program on the Red Line from 95th/Dan Ryan to Howard via the elevated tracks, just because why not? In addition to that, I also edited the announcements at Wilson, Argyle and Bryn Mawr stations to accommodate each of their boarding changes as part of the Lawrence-Bryn Mawr Modernization Project.

I also forgot to mention...
"Belmont is next. Doors open on the right at Belmont. Transfer to Red and Brown Line trains at Belmont." - This could be an implementation on the Purple Line Express now that the North Belmont Red-Purple Reconstruction Project has begun. Currently, Purple Line Express share the two center tracks with Red Line at Belmont, resulting in boarding changes.
Thank you Lee Crooks for the announcements.
