According to Carlson and Schneider the B-3 truck was designed for irregular track and is the most common PCC truck world wide. The B-4 was designed for Chicago Transit Authority rapid transit cars but most CTA rapid transit cars had a heavy duty B-2 truck. The B-5 was an experimental truck tested on an IND R-1 car.

There seems to be a gap from B-7 to B-9

The B-10 truck was used on Boston MTA's 1951 East Boston Tunnel rapid transit cars. The B-11 was proposed as a replacement truck for the 1924 East Boston Tunnel cars. It was never built.

The B-20 and B-30 trucks were tested on CTA cars.
