I'm going to go out on a limb here since I just KNOW Uncle Jeff and a few others will see this tasty morsel of a thread and just HAVE to read it, and I don't have time right now to go through all the Westinghouse schedule literature over undercar options. But as I *remember* it, any U designation without UE would mean *no* "electric assist" and it was straight pneumatic. And if that was the case, would also explain the missing electric leaf switch and cam for it on the ME23 you have there. So if the schedule called out a U unit and not a UE unit, then no electric brake.Yo! Unca Jeff? Is I right? :) |
