Hi Christian

Maybe the pictures will help you with the details, these are three typical bogies from MTH and Samhongsa, all 1/32 scale.


All the Best

Hi Christian, that looks good. I just see your brake system, I have a picture of a Class Fm flatcar, 40 feet, 19 tons, I think it's similar.

thanks but not  the same .........

mine is on top 

but very nice from you

Yes i now , but this is the only pic i have, all my freightcars do not have a liftbar , at one point in the 1930s, decoupling shifted to a lower pin slide on new freight cars and the decoupling hardware became somewhat standardized for a few decades. When the older cars with the Carmer hardware retired, the design slowly disappeared.

Maybe I misunderstood you, my interpretation of your writing style is different than you think. I withdraw my contribution and wish you all the best.

Bei allem Respekt Ihnen gegenüber sind Sie für mich ein ungehobelter und unseriöser Froschfresser.

Ich werde es in Zukunft vermeiden Ihnen zu antworten, wie alle anderen hier auch.
