Unique keepsake items and other CTA-themed gifts available for purchase this holiday season
This year, CTA celebrated two historic milestones: The 125th anniversary of the ‘L’ system, which began service in 1892, and the 70th anniversary of the creation of the Chicago Transit Authority, the governing body responsible for all buses and trains in Chicago. In time for the holidays, CTA fans can now own a piece of history, with new, special anniversary T-shirts, phone cases, magnets, coffee mugs, posters and tote bags that commemorate our role in moving Chicago.
These unique anniversary-themed gifts, along with a number of other distinctive, popular items, are available for purchase on CTA’s popular website, www.ctagifts.com.
For the first time, CTA Gifts is also offering uniquely customizable microwave and dishwasher-safe plates that can be personalized with your child’s name or message. Manufactured with break resistant material, these plates depict the various parts of a train for your favorite little enthusiast. Additionally, CTA Gifts is offering the 2016 Cubs World Series Champions wooden toy train, as well as the ever-popular Holiday Train wooden toy train. Rail car enthusiasts can also order toy trains from the popular CTA Heritage Collection.
The CTA Gifts website also offers perennial best sellers such as knit caps, socks featuring the ‘L’ map, puzzles, umbrellas, books, stationery and many other distinctive and useful items. In fact, many CTA gifts, such as coffee mugs and T-shirts, can be personalized to reflect favorite CTA rail lines, stations and bus stops.
CTA Gifts is also a great site to holiday shop for young transit fans. CTA Gifts offers toys, books, puzzles, play costumes and more. Gift certificates are also available. For more information, visit CTAGifts.com.
