Hint 1: Clue Explanation
▼If you are from New York City, hand up if you confidently scribbled or typed M.T.A. in this slot because we have an L line in our subway system and we also have a tendency to believe that New York is the center of the universe. But look at the clue a little closer: The L is in quotes. This should be read as “el,” which was abbreviated from the word “elevated” until (warning: joke ahead) even that got to be too much, so Chicagoans abbreviated it further to simply “L.” The answer is C.T.A., short for the Chicago Transit Authority.
