33" D&RG Standard Guage Trucks

Does anyone have a drawing that shows the brake components, hangers, shoes etc. for D&RG standard gauge trucks with 33" wheels ?? I have the truck drawing but it doesn’t show any brake components

Welcome aboard David.

I’m sure you will get a answer …

@David Which type (style and or generation) and tonnage. The D&RGW had and used numberous generations of trucks, and they overlapped in time frame and usage. 33" wheels were used on several different tonnage trucks.

these trucks are 4’8" Archbar with a drawing date of 1890. These were used on standard gauge rolling stock as far as I can tell. In particular, they were used on a 30’ std gauge low flat car rated at 60,000 lb or better. The car I am trying to model was a special low flat used to ship NG engines.
