Hello all,
I just have one quick question here today.
Does Amtrak still permit private cars on their trains with "bolt" pedestal trucks? I know today nearly all heavyweights rebuilt to Amtrak specs usually ride on 3-axle cast pedestal trucks. However, I was looking at a whole bunch of pictures of C&O business car "Chapel Hill" and noticed that car is riding around on "bolt" pedestal trucks in 2008!
Does anyone here know what the official Amtrak position is and why some cars still ride on their original trucks?
Thanks in advance!
Well, that's all for now folks.
See ya all later........
