Jason,
when comparing the two eras of Draftgear with some 50 years of improvement between them, it should be kept in mind the KC car was pulled by 2-6-0's and 4-4-0's on a 1% grade, forces far removed from 4 K36/7's on the Marshall Pass 4% grades.

Still I appreciate you efforts in bringing this "old" stuff to the Forum and I'm very impressed at your dedication to the restoration of the Wooden Era. Down here in NZ it would be a lost cause.
