Twin Star Cars did, and maybe still does.

IIRC Twin Star Cars USED to make resin parts to approximate one.

    Group,
   
        Is there an HO company out there that makes the Symington-Gould /
    Chrysler designed high speed freight car truck? This truck had a unique
    'snubber' or shock absorber attached to the bolster & side frame to
    reduce shock. The 'Q' used this truck on 40' & 50' box cars that were
    used in express service as well as the Dark Green GAEX 50' DF box cars.
    Page 50 in the CB&Q Color Guide to Freight and Passenger Equipment has
    photos of a 50' DF box car and 50' ex-GAEX box car using this truck. Thanks,
