Summarize this article for a 10 year old
In the spring of 2012, Chicago Transit Authority started a station and track rehabilitation program dubbed "Red Ahead",[1] beginning on the North Side Main Line, which is called the "Red North" project.[2] The program monitors the full route of the Red Line, which does not include the stations of Loyola, Bryn Mawr, Sheridan, or Wilson.[3] Stations between Wilson through Fullerton, and the State Street subway, are also not included. In May 2012, the CTA started to work on the North Side Main Line stations which includes Jarvis, Morse, Granville, Thorndale, Berwyn, Argyle, and Lawrence. The stations are listed in order, starting at Granville, then Morse, Thorndale, Argyle, Berwyn, Lawrence, and finally Jarvis.[clarification needed] This project started in June 2012 and completed in December 2012. This project is also part of the Red Ahead's "Red & Purple Modernization" project.[4]
