Greetings Jonatahn,
I have revisited Hol Wagners book frequently of late
BUT...
I had overlooked the 10594-612 series. I had also
forgotten the picture of 10606 at the CRRM.
As it was built in 1944 it probably was originally
equipped with Barber Bettendorf swing motion trucks
(or a clone).
The series 10576-10587 and 10588-10593 probably were
equipped with and retained their arch bar trucks.
Surprising in some ways, because of their tendency to
self destruct.
Many thanks for your help.
Regards Mark.
