I was pretty sure they had SIMILAR trucks, but i could have sworn some of the 75 footer cars seem to have different trucks, especially the R44s and R46s. All other cars seem to have the same trucks.

Also, thanks for that info about swapping 100HP motors for 115 horse motors...but my question is WHY NOT REACTIVATE full field shunting? Or was this before the SMEE cars were neutered?

Also, i read here that some trucks that are running on the tracks could be 50-60 years old..is this true? That would be an amazing feat, NYCTA track is rough track, in my opinion, and to survive 50 years of that pounding is something to be proud of.
