Hol,
I would second Jan's response. I think this information would be quite
useful, either as an insert with the Zephyr mailing or Bulletin mailing,
or posted on the website as Jan suggests.

I'd love to see that, Hol...and post it on the website if it's ok.
I've really struggled through the years trying to understand what trucks
could
be found on what cars and it looked like a difficult task...since it
seemed that
any car might have almost any truck (available at the time of it's
building...or
rebuilding) depending on what was "in stock" at the moment. The next
problem
would be that if I were modelling a 1940s box car but in the
1970s...what trucks
would be found on it at that point in time? Kadee just had a sale on
trucks...I
passed because I didn't know what I wanted!
Cheers!
