Four-Wheel Buckeye Trucks (NW Mailing List)

[NW Mailing List]

Robb,

I have the drawing that describes the various classes of trucks for cars and tenders. There were six classes of trucks used in "High Speed Freight" service. They were:

Class     Type                             Used on            
T-74      Young, Buckeye              B-4 Box cars
T-75      Barrett Whitehead           B-5    "
T-76      Nat'l Malleable Type B      B-5    "
T-77      Buckeye All Service          B-5    "
T-78      Allied Full Cushion            B-5    " , Ef
T-79      Young, Buckeye              G-3 Mill type Gondola

Of the six classes, four were used on the B-5's.

My drawing's last revision date is 11-11-53 and it lists only two other classes of trucks being used under the B-5 Box cars. They are T-41b and T-71 as of that date.

Hope this helps.

  I meant to look this up at the Archives... 
  If it helps, B5 48000-48999 were built with N&W class T41b, T61 and T75, T76, or T77 trucks, 49500-49999 all had N&W T71 class trucks.

  I'm gonna swag that those T75-76-77 trucks are the ones you're looking at... they were only found under those B5s on N&Ws roster.
  Next session I'll try to look up exactly how many and what numbers... if I don't get sidetracked... again...
