Re: D & RGW 30 ft. NG Reefer

We have already built the "Reefer Trucks" to original specifications, with the inside brake shoes. We have had new molds and castings made for the trucks and the bolsters and bolster spacers. Some of which were from the original parts that were retrieved from the side of the mountain near Ames on the RGS. Some of the retrieved parts have been installed on # 39. Other were used for new patterns for casting.

We are currently seeking Diagrams and patterns for the brake linkage that is hung on the trucks. All the usual sources do not show all the linkage, and adjusters, for the inside brake set up. These oversize trucks needed special linkage.
