I went on a drive a little while ago to see what's going on with the Dan Ryan branch now that it's been shut down for 15 hours. Work is already underway; it appeared that some electrical work was being done between 87th and 95th, and other work of an undetermined nature was being done between 35th and Cermak/Chinatown. In both of these areas, they were using rail vehicles so it appears the track infrastructure is still intact.
I also drove past the 98th street yard via the Bishop Ford. Unsurprisingly, snow removal equipment is still there, but what caught my eye is that there is also a six-car set of 2400s. These were not work motors with red/white striping - one number I caught of the six was 2487.

That old car might be worth money!
