it does not interfere with the end of the axle. Glue the speed
recorder and axle bearings in place. Use a cut-off disk in your
motor tool to remove 1/32” from the ends of the wheelset that
will go in the center position of the front truck. This is neces-
sary so the wheelset will roll freely with the new axle bearings
installed in the side frame.
Bend new brake air lines from .010” brass wire following pho-
tos, and glue in place. Install the Details West sand hose brack-
ets on the outboard end of the truck side frames. There are no
brackets on the inboard ends of the trucks. It is not necessary
to model the sand lines themselves, as they would be hidden
behind the steps. Make a speed recorder cable from .008”
brass wire.
