Yes you are right cause the athearn trainmaster has metal sideframes instead of plastic sideframes.I am still looking around for some athearn power trucks I am needing two axle trucks & three axle trucks.I have some athearn frames that need power,The frames I have are.SD9,SD40-2,SD40T-2,GP40-2,F7A.This will take time to get due to me low on $$$ right now.I am hoping I will get these ruuning soon with motors an etc.
The Trainmaster trucks are actually unique. The wheel spacing and sideframes are quite a bit different from the SD45 trucks.

They're actually the same trucks. All Athearn does is change out the sideframes.
Okay Thanks Mike.
MetrolinkFan was wondering will a athearn GP40-2 power trucks, fit onto a athearn F7A frame?
Yes.
