I don't have time to look myself, but if you go to Trainz Resources Directory (Link in my signature), look under Plans And Drawings/Railway Stuff/Bogies and Trucks.

Don't stop at the listings themselves, as they will collectively take you to dozens of drawings.

Good luck.

I think the bogey is a QR PB15 one or a NSW 3526 one.

 

[skol587]

its a u.s. 36in gauge truck. if that helps and the railroad used them since the 1910's

Trainz Resources Directory handy tool but n help

I'm not too sure I understand what you mean by this. If you mean there's NO help, I'm wondering what kind of help you need to search a directory. You either use the extensive menu system on the left or use the Search box or Advanced search box also on the left. because the program is still in beta stage, I did suggest that you use the menu and look for Plans And Drawings/Railway Stuff/Bogies and Trucks where you will find links, information about dozens of bogeys. Once on the listing page, you simply click the blue link at the bottom to be taken to that web site.

You could also enter bogey, bogeys or bogies into the search box. I think bogies is an American word.

That my friend, is the beginning and end of my extensive HELP page Just let me know how I can improve on it and I'll do my best.

BTW, having researched hundreds of Trainz sites, I have yet to find one with a help page.

im mostly looking for the name of the bogey
but pictures would work to
and what i meant by no help is i didn't find what i was looking for

Thanks for clarifying that skol587. When I read your post it certainly didn't convey that message. Thus the confusion.

This link contains stuff about passenger car bogeys. If I find others as I do my research, I'll post them here.

hay i've read this book before its has a pretty cool passenger cars but my bogey is from a fright car

 

[Johnk]

This is really a job for a rivet counter over in one of the railway forums. I'd pick a forum closest to the country of origin or gauge if you know it.

Have you seen this link plus the YouTube Movie

the truck was used by the unitah railway in the colorado/utah area of the united states the railroad was a 36in narrow gauge gillsonight hauler the rail road used the trucks exclusively on there flat cars

 

[Johnk]

Yes, I finally saw that. I have edited my reply. My mistake.

 

[skol587]

ya i have seen those to and i have have a book on the railroad

 

[whitepass]

What you need is a good photo as US bogeys are made up of a lot of parts from deferent manufacturers. The bogey side frames and assembly by one and every thing else was to the railroads specifications, wheels, axles, journal boxes, and so on.

 

[skol587]

well as i mentioned once before i'm mostly looking for more detailed pictures

 

[skol587]
