Car 3240 was one of four 3200s from Midway Yard assigned to operate a Loop Shuttle train on Sunday, August 11, 2002 while the Outer Loop was closed on the Lake and Wabash sides for maintenance work. In service, the car ran with green "Loop" destination signs, white-green markers, and a large shuttle sign hanging on the front chains. It has just gone out of service here at Adams/Wabash around 1400 hours. (Photo by Graham Garfield)
