I'm on the road and can't access my records for awhile. Jim Brewer may have that information. Check pictures in the society archives and the tech website. The disc brakes trucks do not have a brake cylinder on the outside.

Jim: 

"New news" is always much appreciated.  First I knew of that.  Do 
you happen to know which ones?  Since I have a couple of cars decorated for 
that series (and one unpainted brass S-1) equipping them with correct trucks 
would give me  warm feeling if nothing else. 

Thanks, 

Dave Phelps

I personally do not know in more detail  what differentiated a T-89 from a T-94, or what "41" classification  specifically applied, but there are others who I'm confident can fill in the  blanks.  The one clue I see is that the equalizer beam on some of the  trucks in the photos appears to be of the "flanged" type, while others are a  plain rectangular cross section.

If it's three feet or more, in HO the Walthers 41-N-11 933-1069 will do nicely, or the IHB "Super Free  Rolling" four-wheel if  you can find some on eBay. (Do NOT use the  Rapido 41-N-11; it has rotary snubbers.  The N&W used piston  snubbers, and the difference CAN be seen from three feet.)
