Ron,

The On3 Litchfield trucks with outside brake hangers that Robert was describing on Shapeways can be seen here: <a href="http://www.shapeways.com/product/3Q3ZHAL74/on3-dsp-p-type-quot-a-quot-litchfield-trucks-2-pair?li=user-profile&optionId=42624499</a>

They look intriguing, wish he would print them in Sn3.  The Leadville Shops has Sn3 Litchfield trucks as brass kits, but my soldering skills haven't quite progressed that far yet.  I still have 3 pair of their "type B" trucks to assemble, once I've practiced with my new drill press to drill out the axle holes.

Please post some photos of your models, if they illustrate any topic discussed here.

Jim
