Thanks! I looked over the OSU picture and it was a little hard to tell, but 
 didn't look like it had the brake cylinders.

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.

"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,

The T94 had disc brakes. There were 5 cars so  equipped

According to the information on the NWHS web site, two types of trucks  
were used, N&W types T-89 and T-94.  From the photos, they appear  to be 
basically 41-N-11 trucks.  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 you're modeling, consider the distance from which the cars will be  
viewed.  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.)

Hope this helps, sorry I can't help on the T-89 vs T-94, but my  knowledge 
just doesn't extend quite that far.
