It probably would be better to use the RS-3 trucks as the axle spacing is closer. Some of the H-16-44's did have the Alco B style trucks, though the C Line type sideframes would be more appropriate. My guess is that these have never been available in S yet, though I hope I am wrong. The H-16-44 would be a cool addition to S. Then a CFA-16-44 and maybe out of that a CPA-16-54...hmm. cheers, Andy Malette The poll results are in....... To REPLY to the list, use REPLY ALL, to reply to the sender, use REPLY.
