Title:  CTA 4000 Series 4412 and 4321
Description:  Standing in CTA 4000 series car 4412 and looking through the doors into car 4321. Plenty of passengers which, of course, is what these cars were made for. At the Illinois Railway Museum.

Inside CTA 4000 Series car 4412
Title:  Inside CTA 4000 Series car 4412
Description:  Inside CTA 4000 series car 4412 at the Illinois Railway Museum. Many museum visitors riding that day. I rode the 4000 series on the Lake Street El many times and remember when they were so crowded you had to stand. Those white loop handles you see hanging down at the end of the car were for standees to hang onto to.

CTA 4000 series cars 4412 and 4321
Title:  CTA 4000 series cars 4412 and 4321
Description:  CTA 4000 series cars 4412 and 4321 at the Illinois Railway Museum. Note the wood framed "Ravenswood" route sign hanging on hooks at a front window. In later years, these tended to disappear to souvenir hunters and were replaced with plain black lettering on white cardboard placed inside behind that window.

CTA 4000 Series Car 4412 Power Truck
Title:  CTA 4000 Series Car 4412 Power Truck
Description:  Each CTA 4000 Series car used two different types of trucks: The power truck was 6 6" wheelbase with 34" wheels. The trailer truck (the car is not a trailer, just this truck as being unpowered) was 5 6" wheelbase with 31" wheels. This is the power truck and the top of the wheel is relatively near the car bottom. At the Illinois Railway Museum.

CTA 4000 Series Car 4412 Trailer Truck
Title:  CTA 4000 Series Car 4412 Trailer Truck
Description:  Each CTA 4000 Series car used two different types of trucks: The power truck was 6 6" wheelbase with 34" wheels. The trailer truck (the car is not a trailer, just this truck which is unpowered) was 5 6" wheelbase with 31" wheels. This is the trailer truck and the top of the wheel is relatively distant from the car bottom due to its smaller wheels compared to the power truck that has larger diameter wheels. At the Illinois Railway Museum.
