Freight & Passenger Truck Assemblies

As a result of numerous requests since the beginning of our rolling stock production, Kohs & Company is offering a limited production series of truck assemblies for sale separately. Built with the same quality as our rolling stock, these trucks are thoroughly researched and developed.

A common design specification for all modern AAR trucks calls for the use of U-channel side frames and to our knowledge, this feature has never been previously modeled, but it will be with our scale trucks. Standard features include:

  • Brass U-Channel Side Frame Construction with Cast Raised Lettering
  • Scale Bolster Width
  • Reamable Bolster Mounting Pilot Hole
  • Functional Bolster Springing
  • Sealed Ball-Bearing Journals
  • Double Insulated Stainless Steel Wheelsets with adjustable O/P48 gauging (Pat.Pend.)
  • Stainless Steel Scale Profile Wheels
  • Scale Profile Stainless Steel Axles
  • Complete Brake Rigging
  • Opening Journal Box Lids (when appropriate)
  • Adjustable Bolster to set the Ride Height

Shown below are the first trucks in our series scheduled for production. General updates regarding our truck projects can be found at the link immediately below.
