Hi John,
I think that Hamilton Manufacturing has actually built 16 passenger cars for the WP&Y over the past few years. Thus, I would belive that they have the designs as well as the patterns to make 3-foot narrow gauge trucks. So CT&S may not have to make the trucks themselves. Although, they could buy a truck "kit" from Hamilton and then assemble them in Chama to help with year-round employment.
I thought the cars they built for the WP&Y looked great. From looking at the pictures, The only think I would do different is install better arm rests on the cars.
Sincerely,
Andy
