Chicago Transit Authority #460 |
Description: |
Built by Pullman in 1908. The following is from a display on the car: Chicago Railways was formed in 1903, and eventually operated over 575 miles of street trackage from downtown to the citys North and West sides. In 1914, Chicago Railways combined with three other lines to form the Chicago Surface Lines. Those routes eventually became part of the CTA in 1947. CR (and later CSL and CTA) 460 was one of 600 identical wooden pay-as-you-enter (PAYE) cars. PAYE cars required passengers to board only at the rear, so that the conductor did not have to roam the car to collect fares and dispense transfers. These Red Rocket streetcars-considered a classic Chicago design-ran until the 1950s, among the last non-PCC cars in use. IRM received the car in 1985, after donation by the CTA. Only three cars of this type (including restored CSL 144, also at IRM) have been preserved. |
