Peter, <br /> <br />that with the missing pivot was a mistake by me! <br /> <br />When I think bolsterless, I mean a truck that absorbe the traction forces to the frame with a rod construction. The new, here in Germany built electrics of New Jersey use this arrangement. Our 220 km/h locomotive series 101 is the "mother" of NJT engines and use this arrangement too. <br />There are two rods at the end of the frame connected to a place at the frame. The Austrian electro type 1044 show the four rods, each truck has two, between the trucks very clear. <br /> <br />But your right, there is no rod construction for the traction force in this engines, must be a pivot !!! <br /> <br />
