Well
Here in Mexico all AC400CW of TFM , Ferromex and Ferrosur have the selfsterring trucks, also in TFM's SD70MAC have EMD´s selfsteering too. Athearn is releasing AC4400CW of CSX, KCS and Ferromex, these railroads in fact have theirs locomotives with selfsteering trucks

Thanks. I have about had it with all the rocket science surveys any way. I'm waiting for one asking if a cat or dog would make a better operator. Think I'll just stay away from there for awhile.

Well Union Pacific ordered a few AC4400s with GE's radial trucks, but then they had them replaced with the HiAd. But all of the SD90MACs and SD70Ms still have their factory radials on them.

Are you talking about the EMD type or GE type?
I would think so because I still see alot of both Prototypes with them.
Just about every Railroad has them now!

I posted this on the Trains.com board and got no responses after a week so I thought I would try here. Does anybody know if the railroads are satisfied with the radial steering trucks on locomotives? Do they plan more in the future or will they go back to the tried and true like the Flexacoil? Thanks.
