[quote]QUOTE: <i>Originally posted by Curious</i> <br /><br />As a new member, I hope I don't include any gaffs in this message. <br /> My questions are: <br />1) Where would I find detailed information on the different types of trucks used on rail equipment from about 1850 to 1950? Measured/scaled drawings would certainly be the most helpful but any info will be appreciated. <br />2) Is there a labeled drawing that would indicate what the different parts and hardware are called that are present in the underpinnings of cars of the same period. Braking systems, bracing rods, etc <br />Thanks <br />[/quote] <br /> <br />[uModel Railroader][/u] did an article on a guide to freight car trucks in ther December 2003, good article. And I'm not sure but there is that John White -Guide to Freight Cars which has general drawings I'm told, I myself want that book.
