Thanks Jim,
I've never seen this 41-CNDO truck as it was suggested to me by a "passenger
car guru" on another forum, but you are absolutely correct when I think about
it. It's impossible to have a CN!
I know the UP ran the 41-CUDO and the AT&SF ran the 41-CDO which are virtually
identical except the diameter of the pedistal opening. Maybe the other fellow
meant 41-NDO which I've never seen either. I know the straight -ND has dual
equalizer springs and used an inside swing hanger, while the -CDO and -CUDO
have only one equalizer spring, but maybe when the -ND went to outside swing
hanger (NDO) they went to a single equalizer spring as well. Kinda makes my
head swim, but I'm sure getting an education in passenger car trucks! <VBG>.
Actually this all started because I'm trying to find dimensional drawings of a
-CUDO or -CDO truck in hopes of having it produced in "S" scale. And the more
passenger trucks I can find that share this outside swing hanger design the
larger the market would be to market them and the greater the chances of
recouping the production costs....but you know all about that.
So far I know the UP, AT&SF and Amtrak used this style truck but the list gets
pretty thin after that.
HOW ABOUT IT! Anyone like to have some correct passenger car trucks to go
under their UP, AT&SF or Amtrak cars?
Butch
