These cars were the first 'L' cars built since the 4000 series of 1914 to feature sliding doors rather than the folding blinker doors featured on the other cars that were in service at the time, with wider doorways allowing the cars to accommodate wheelchair-bound persons. The 2400-series cars also featured smooth steel exteriors as opposed to the corrugated exteriors of the previous series. As delivered, the cars featured a red, white, and blue color scheme on the front and rear of the cars, as well as stripes along the sides. Cars 2401–2422 were later modified to be used for work service as well as revenue passenger service and given red and white striping along their sides as well as on the front and rear of the cars. They were refurbished at the Skokie Shops in Skokie, Illinois between 1987 and 1995.Beginning in Fall 2003, the red, white, and blue colors on the ends of the cars were removed, as were the stripes on the sides, giving the cars an unpainted steel appearance similar to the rest of the 'L' fleet (including the 2400-series cars, which were also being stripped of their stripes at this time). This was done so as to give a more unified appearance, as well as to reduce maintenance costs. The "work" cars retain the red and white striping on their ends, but the stripes on their sides have been removed.In the 1990s, the 2400-series cars were used on the Red Line in mixed sets with unrefurbished 2600-series cars. While the 2600-series cars were being refurbished, the 2400-series cars were used temporarily on the Red Line. As of February 2014, this series comprises part of the rolling stock for the Purple and Orange Lines. The Purple Line cars are currently in the process of being retired, and are being replaced by 2600-series cars which are being displaced from the Red Line as more 5000-series cars are being delivered and assigned to the Red Line.. }
