Where is the yard where 611 and 614 are stored? Can it be reached easily by CTA? And how visible are 611 and 614?

And how visible are 611 and 614?The only way to get a good look at them is on-board any Metra or Amtrak train that goes by the Metra Western Ave. yard (Metra Milwaukee-West and North, North Central, and Amtrak Hiawathas and Empire Builder). They're towards the west end of the yard on the track closest to main track 1 (normal westbound track). Visible out the north side of any passing train unless you have the bad luck of having another road train between you and them as you pass.
Any street visibility of them will be from a distance and probably somewhat obscured.
