IDing Ajax brake parts
Looks like the Terry Wegmann detail shots for his R-40-18 project. This was always a work in progress with new parts added over about 5 years. This one is in mid-production.

Ajax brake parts
Need some help identifying the sprue I found on my workbench. It’s an Ajax brake wheel and related parts. Does anyone recognize the manufacturer?

Eric,
Absolutely WP. These cars were WP's signature boxcars. They were built by Mt. Vernon in two batches as series 16001-16800 in 1917 and 16801-18300 in 1918. Also built in 1917 were matching
