i'd rather see the plain-jane Dorfan trucks with brass journals.

 

nice, different, but not really Dorfan.

...

Yes, they modeled leaf springs on the premeum Dorfan bogies and so do we, see the picture.

The journals are painted silver.

In my view we represent the true spirit of Dorfan.

...

i believe i get it now.  you're modeling the wide gauge cars in O gauge.  but just to clear it up, those are not premium O trucks, they are merely wide gauge trucks scaled down.  all the O gauge Dorfan trucks were basically the same stamped steel design.  Dorfan premium O gauge cars had brass journal boxes on the sideframes.

 

again, they look like nice cars, i just don't think they'll fit in well with original Dorfan O.

 

something i'd definitely be interested in would be some of the colorful #55 steam locomotive/ tender liveries.

 

good luck with it...gary
