A young preservationist friend of mine is looking to locate and acquire a pair of these Allied Full Cushion Trucks as used under many an express boxcar, and auxiliary cars in various types of service. He owns one of few remaining World War II Western Maryland Troop Kitchen Cars and is hoping to pull together enough parts, resources, and what not to make his car an honest representation of the car in its as-delivered condition. To that end, he needs these trucks. They fell out of favor with many railroads but we are of the understanding that there are a good many of them still around. If you have a single truck or more ideally a pair in your back 40 and want to rehome them, please message me. Thanks!
