I picked a random address in Evanston and a random one downtown and we're looking at 35m by car or 1h 7m by train, assuming that I catch the first train (comes every 20m) edit: the metra wasn't considered because it takes longer but what's worse, the station near Evanston trains run every 60 minutes! If you're timing is perfect its still far worse than a car, and if your timing is bad, sheesh.

At rush hour trains run every 20 minutes or better. A rush hour train does indeed take 30 minutes between Davis and OTC (tomorrow's 7:11 is scheduled for 29min) You are absolutely not, without question, making that drive in under 75 minutes at rush hour. Obviously the equation changes at different times of day, but the vast majority of trips between downtown Evanston and downtown Chicago are office workers.
