Only one reason why LIRR/MNCR went with outboard bearing trucks was the support structure for the disk brakes was simply not there, on inboard bearing trucks with their smaller truck frame, simply because the design incorporated the tread brakes as well.The disks are part of the wheel, and not part of inner axle, that space is occupied by AC traction motor and gearbox. |
