Zach Ehlers sent along this link to a movie posted online by the University of South Carolina that we think you'll enjoy. It shows our horsecar, North Chicago Street Railroad 8, and CSL 7001 being operated for some sort of promotional event in the spring of 1934. They're shown running along the trackage east of the IC that was built for the World's Fair. Pretty fascinating! USC also has a bunch of other movies from the 1930s available online, many of them with sound.
