[quote]QUOTE: Originally posted by M636C We have one Schnabel car in Australia, and I followed it on an empty run a couple of years ago. It had plain oil lubricated bearings, despite being built in the 1970s. The theory was that it would be rarely used, and the plain bearings would last better in very occasional service. It had only two axle trucks but more of them than BBCX 1000. While they are not truly single cars, we have sets of eight coul hoppers permanently coupled by bar couplers, so for all traffic purposes they are single cars. These would be longer than any articulated container rake here of five vehicles. We also have bar coupled rakes of container well cars, and they have a single car number, unlike the coal hoppers. Just an inconsistency, the same operator owns them. M636C [/quote] I have seen a huge Schnabel car in minesota. It was big and red[:)]
