I'm researching a SOO Lone 55' Center Flow Hopper Road Number:93682
Its markings show the following: CAPY 194000 LO; LD LMT 197300; LT WT 65700
NEW 8-68; CU FT 5230.
I'm also researching another SOO Line Center Flow Hopper Road Number: 74516.
Its markings show the following: CAPY 200000 LO; LD LMT 200400; LT WT 62600
NEW 10-76; Cu Ft: 4600
What style trucks and their manufacturer do both these Hoppers require???
Thank You in advance for any and all assistance that you can provide. Respectfully Robert E. Cronan

This car from a few numbers away looks to have ASF 100-ton trucks http://www.rr-fallenflags.org/soo/soo074511gga.jpg . I couldn;t find a photo of the other series you were asking about, but chances are they were an ASF or Barber design.
