How do "Dahlman two-level" trucks compare to the ones made by Culp
Brothers about 55 years ago?
I find that I can readily distinguish among the three basic types of
freight trucks: arch-bar, Andrews and Bettendorf. However, the
differences among the Bettendorf-style trucks are generally too
subtle for me. I do have some T-section trucks (from the 1980s NASG
tank car project), as well as some of the Culp trucks, but from a
distance they look to me like all my other Bettendorf-style trucks.
