Re: uintah rwy railcar number 50

Dan, Bruce et al -

What I thought I saw in the shadows of the photos of #50 is confirmed by the photos of #52 in the first photo on [ngdiscussion.net] in combination with the first two photos on [ngdiscussion.net].  IMHO, on BOTH vehicles there is a sprocket on EACH end of the original drive shaft; the chain from the sprocket on the right side goes to the forward drive wheels and the chain from the sprocket on the left side goes to the rear drive wheels, but on #50 – unlike #52 – there is another sprocket (for maintaining even tension?) on the left side that's visible under the frame and just ahead of the rear drive wheels in the 2nd, 3rd and 5th photos on [ngdiscussion.net].
