Here are several rapid transit proposals for the northwest side of Chicago from a 1962 engineering report. 

https://imgur.com/a/cjjOisU

It's interesting as the proposal that details a rapid transit line via the median strip of the expressway (what eventually became the Blue Line) included recommendations to build stations at Lawrence, Foster-Central, Nagle, and Canfield.

The document was titled "Northwest Chicago Corridor Transportation Study: Engineering Report." A digitized version exists online, but it doesn't include all of the figures.

So was it a case of Black ice?  Obviously there wasn't a lot of snow.  Or was there some Lake effect snow?

It was visible ice. Every street east of the Dan Ryan was covered with ice. No one pre treated the roads I guess.
