Chicago trains crossword clue
67 Across · WSJ Crossword, July 27, 2026 · 3 letters
Explanation
The answer to “Chicago trains” is ELS. It appears as 67 Across in the Wall Street Journal crossword of July 27, 2026, a Monday puzzle titled “Brief Exchange” by Mat Holmes, and it fills 3 squares running left to right from row 15, column 1 of the 15×15 grid.
A plural clue takes a plural answer, which is why the entry ends in S. The entry begins with E and ends with S, and contains 1 vowel and 2 consonants. If you are working from the crossings, two or three confirmed letters from the Down entries should be enough to lock it in. Monday puzzles are the most approachable of the week, so expect the rest of this grid to be pitched at the same level.
