The castings were hollow and had a set of levers mounted internally to perform the equilization.</div> </blockquote> <br />I'm just quoting from the Book "'Diesel Locomotives: the First 50 years" - is it possible that those trucks were offered with and without equalization?</p> <div style="clear:both;"></div> <p>[/quote]</p> <p><span style="font-family: verdana,geneva;"><span style="font-size: small;">I can't imagine six-wheel trucks without equalization on locomotives or rolling stock. In glancing over the book you mention, I don't see any reference to the FM or Baldwin six-wheel power trucks being without equalization. Could you point out exactly where this is in the book? </span></span></p>
