Description:  Chicago Transit Authority 51 on a fan trip at Kostner Avenue in Skokie, Illinois on October 25, 1964, Kodachrome by Chuck Zeiler.

CTA 6101
Title:  CTA 6101
Description:  Chicago Transit Authority 6101 and 53 at the shops in Skokie, Illinois on an unknown day in July 1981, Kodachrome by Chuck Zeiler. If memory serves, this was a fan trip to the shops featuring several assorted new and newly rebuilt pieces of equipment displayed on the shop leads. The trip was timed for those of us who worked during the day, so it was late in the evening by the time the trip arrived at the shops. Many of the photos I shot were illuminated with flash (strobe).

CTA S-417
Title:  CTA S-417
Description:  Chicago Transit Authority S-417 and S-418 at Forest Park, Illinois on an unknown day in March 1980, Kodachrome by Chuck Zeiler. Chicago experienced a significant snow storm during January 1979 and the CTA had no snow fighting equipment. This was the response and it's unlikely this equipment ever saw any snow fighting work after the conversion. The rails this equipment was parked on were built for the Chicago Aurora & Elgin Railroad's access to the CTA's Forest Park terminal, but the CA&E was abandon before that plan was implemented.
