From a thread on the Train Orders Western Railroading discussion board I received an interesting scan about the mechanics of the EMD HTC-R steerable radial trucks. I found this fascinating and thought others might also. To see the scan (taken from a GM servcie manual, hope they don't mind} follow the link below. Question, why hasn't this been done before?

I know of a man who was working on Radial Trucks in the 1970. He had a set made and tested. He told me the CN was looking at them. That was 25 years ago and at this time I think the CN had a number of cars with them.<br> lvrr@enter.net |
