Re: MEK Substitute and current plastic cements
For anyone stocking up on MEK, don’t leave it in the can you bought it in or it will evaporate long before you can use it all. I refilled my working bottle today, and the quart can was two thirds

I apologise, Tony - I forgot to include a smiley face in my previous post so that it would be obvious that I was speaking tongue-in-cheek.

Re: Video: Forgotten Chicago
Thanks for your phone detective work, Jim! I spotted some structural landmarks that are still in place today, their 1940’s, function long gone. The area at 22nd (Cermack Rd) as the track goes north

Re: MEK Substitute and current plastic cements
This rumor of course but I was told all the big box stores (and then everyone else) quit carrying these was the fear of law suits. MEK I understand can still be purchased in CA,

Friends,
This is obviously shot along the CB&Q, as most of the equipment is theirs (I did note a PRR round-roof boxcar). The buildings seem vaguely familiar from my trips on

Re: what to do with all those leftover freight car trucks?
The bearings seat against a loose piece in the box called the journal bearing wedge. These may well be machined, but only fit against locating bosses in the box.

Those are rather large diameter and require little precision. I suspect they are cored in the casting.

MEK is part a long list of things we are not able to use such as straws. It is only a matter of time before Tru-Color paints will declared illegal.

Re: what to do with all those leftover freight car trucks?
The bronze bearings have to be seated in the journal boxes … it is unlikely that the raw castings would be suitable without some clean-up. Possibly the spring pads and bolster slots would also need
