Any photo of a PRR H39a will show Crown trucks in use on cars built post 1957. The H39 class cars were built by outside vendors (Bethlehem, Greenville, etc.) with ASF Type A-3 trucks while the H39a were built in the PRR Sam Rea shops circa 1959-60 and rode on recycled crown trucks salvaged from scraped H21a family of cars.

He gives the date for T, L, and I sideframe ban as Jan. 1, 1957. Andrews and Vulcan trucks could be made with either L or U section side frames. The U section versions would have survived past 1957. But then, if photos can't be found... Brian Leppert Tahoe Model Works Carson City, NV ------------------------------------ Yahoo! Groups Links
