- New track work - the Schmidt Cutoff was constructed, and yards 13 and 14 completely rebuilt and ready for barn construction
- New trolley bus wire installed, and power lines extended to the south property
- Acquisition of our Dodge Inspection Car from the Milwaukee Road
- Acquisition of two new Chicago L cars (2400's) and completion of the 2200's
- Dedication of C&WT 141
- Two Diesels acquired
- CA&E 36 is now operational, and has been used in revenue service
