Flxs on Dan Ryan Expressway

Earlier today while I was on the Red Line, I saw about 6 or 7 CTA Flxibles running ! Any thoughts ?

You didn't say if they were going South or North on the Eisenhower. If they were going South, 77th and Perry or 92nd and Ewing is possible. If they were going North, your guess is as good as mine, unless there were only 6, then it's possible 6042, 6221, 6223, 6224, 6227 and 6237 are returning to Archer for storage.

Yes, they were going southbound on the Dan Ryan Expressway.

Oops... Outside of the Kennedy and Edens, I'm not too familiar with the Expressways in and around Chicago. But back to topic, it sounds like some Flxibles are going off to be stripped of interchangable parts down at 77th/Perry, then eventually off to 92nd/Ewing for scrapping. It's a shame you can't use google maps to look at Archer Garage from above(being that it's an indoor facility) and see how many are left parked there.
