I'm looking for the specifications/spring numbers for both the equalizer and bolster springs used on the rebuilt "Boise" Budd cars. If anyone has this information available, it would be greatly appreciated! |

If anyone has this information available, it would be greatly appreciated! Those are the Budd RDCs made into coaches by Morrison-Knudson I believe, I have heard that a few are still in Canada, some were on VRE, etc.. I doubt this would help, but here is a list of original Budd documents, the original springs might be in there. https://www.pullmanlibrary.org/2022-4-15BUDD.pdf You might try Wabtec, which bought MK/ later Motive Power Inc.. |

Don't forget the fleet on the Grand Canyon Railway--i half expect Brother Hadder to chime in when he has time. |
