Hi Charlie,

Thanks for the truck info and the shapeways info.  I have a set of trucks on order now.

Thanks!

Don and Group-

The No.2 truck came in various wheel sizes and was widely used on wood passenger equipment.

It was a CB&Q design and shared many parts with the No.7 truck which is well known as the standard Waycar truck.   There were six wheel trucks that also used the same cast parts.

Panamint Models on Shapeways has HO truck sideframes HOT52s.   The copy on his shop page says 92” wheelbase but it doesn’t look like it from the picture, it looks like they are the correct 86” to my eye. He also does the No.7 truck in HO.

I’ve gotten his No. 2 and No.7 truck frames in N Scale and they work very well.
