A trainset speaks volumes when you walk undercar and inspect carefully. Having a 'tooth' pulled out with pressure exceeding 105 tons must hurt....thats more than 200K PSI! Comparative example is my rebuild of ATC array....Huck bolt blind 3/8ths fasteners shear at 10K PSI with a bang......105 ton is a big number! RRCI Peter |
