Art & Detail 70 tons roller bearing trucks
Art & Detail 70 tons roller bearing trucks
The trucks are injection moulded, they have high level of detail, including the brakes and bearing covers.
The bearing covers turn with the wheel - as on a real car.
I ordered them with RP25 wheels.
I have made a video with SW1200 and a covered hopper equipped with the new trucks, but I need some help with that. It needs to be rotated 90 degrees and then placed on youtube. Who can help?
Here are some pictures:
This is what you get: The bearing covers nicely fit onto the axles, there is a corresponding hole on the back side of them. I used some C-A glue anyway.
I painted the bolts white as seen on some real cars. This way their movement is visible even for me. New truck compared to the old truck (manufacturer of the old truck is unknown to me)
Seen from the top, bottom, and side

Thanks Rob
It still does not show the detail of the bearing covers moving. So, people have to trust me for now.
I have noticed that the first pictures were too dark. They are fixed now.

I've seen them first hand, and the movement of the bearing covers is pretty obvious when you watch the train, even with the bolts unpainted. These are very nice looking trucks.

The old brass trucks were made by Ingo (Waggonbau Schwaetzer), member of the german TT-USA SIG.j p wrote:New truck compared to the old truck (manufacturer of the old truck is unknown to me)
