car 4451 is at the Fox
River Trolley Museum on July 3, 2000. The car was in the
process of being repaired and repainted. The brown material
on the front patched and repaired parts of the rusted and
corroded steel exterior and was later panted over.

A two-car Lake Street All-Stop train made up of 4000-series
cars 4365 and 4366 passes through Tower
12 and turns north onto Wabash Avenue after leaving
State/Van
Buren station in June, 1964. Normally, Lake Street trains operated counterclockwise on the Inner Loop, but here
the train is detoured onto the Outer Loop due to track work. (Photo by Jerry Appleman) |

A 4000-series car
operates at grade approaching Linden
at the end of the Evanston Line. The
view looks east-southeast from south end of the passenger
platform. The rails in foreground are the east pocket track.
The 4000s are on the
so-called "side track" and it is unusual to see the
southerly part of it occupied but the more northerly part
vacant. The parking lot is on the land left over from the
North Shore Line right-of-way. (Photo from
