NO.The position of the trucks related to the end of the train dictates this. Two cars must almost share a truck for there to be zero over swing. This is possible, but the the length of the cars must be shorter to prevent the middles of the cars from striking the wayside and platforms. Equipment must be designed to manage the profile of the road. On 75 foot cars especially a happy medium needed to be found for the position of the truck to prevent belly trikes. Mofe the trucks too far from the ends of the cars and you will have end strikes. ROAR |
