	cta40b.jpg Car 40 at the Fox River Trolley Museum on April 30, 2000. At the time of the photo, there are plans to equip this car with trolley poles in 2000 so that the car can operate under its own power. (Photo by Eric Zabelny)
	cta43c.jpg Car 43 on the mainline at FRTM on April 30, 2000. Trolley poles were reinstalled on the car last year making this car operational for public rides. The front destination sign bears the reading of the Evanston Line, where car 43 was indeed assigned in the 1980s and 1990s. (Photo by Eric Zabelny)
	cta45b.jpg Car 45 on the mainline at East Troy on April 22, 2000. Trolley poles were reinstalled on the car earlier this year, making this car a part of the museum's operating collection. Sister car 35 is expected to be delivered sometime in the near future. (Photo by Eric Zabelny)

The car was originally part of an an ill-fated plan to preserve historical operation on the CTA's "L" that was nixed by top CTA officials. (Photo by David Harrison)

	cta22d.jpg While traveling west on Oakton Street, the museum transport is forced to stop at the Skokie Swift crossing by a southbound Yellow Line train of 3200s as if the new cars were trying to say, "Don't leave." But history can't be denied and the motor transport revs up as the crossing gates clear. (Video capture by David Harrison)
