Yep. I think it is coming along. Not having to create the spring plank saves me time. Journal boxes are up next, then the springs which will need to be custom wound.
And I guess I should start calling these 25 ton trucks since that seems to be more accurate. Were these used in the same manner as the 20 ton units?
