Darrell, I'd be interested in some brake details for these trucks if you can make some.
It always seems strange to me that most of my narrow gauge trucks have brake detail and my standard gauge ones don't.

While I'm finishing up the latest re-work on my Missouri C&F trucks, I got to thinking about the Ace arch-bar trucks, of which I have several, and I know lots of you all have too. There are a couple of bushings(?) on the inside of the frame as if for mounting brakes. Did these trucks ever come with brakes? If so, did they mount ok, or were there problems? Obviously these must be plastic parts so as not to short out the truck.... I might be able to make a suitable part for these with 3D printing (SketchUp and Shapeways). Is there any interest in such a part? Iron Rail Models are currently marketing these trucks, and they apparently are identical to the old Ace ones......
