I have seen a few photos of C&S waycars with archbars, but many more with
cast trucks. Moreover, keep in mind that the C&S was an early adopter of
cast trucks. Even its narrow gauge freight cars were being built with such
trucks (and w/o truss rods!) near the beginning of the 20th century. The
photo Bob posted of car 10606 shows what I take to be a very early version
of the cast truck, and it would not at all surprise me to learn that they
were its orignals.
