Chicago Rapid Transit #1754 |
Description: |
The #1754 is on display as an example of the pre-restoration condition L car. Northwestern #24 (further up the track) is in post-restoration condition. A stark example of what can be accomplished with a little volunteer elbow grease. |

Description: |
It owes the missing journal cover to the unique design. Unlike the flip covers of other friction baring trucks these are separate from the journal box. Leaving them susceptible to falling off if not correctly tightened or worked loose during operation. |
