We have been in contact with FICUS PRODUCTS of Hamilton, OH about producing their already famous "S" hi-rail truck for 3R "O". This truck is nothing fancy but built to last. Made of heat blackened steel they feature spring inserts.
If they will produce them will anyone in "O" buy them.
Your thoughts?
The photo below is of an "S" FICUS truck.

Yes, provided price is reasonable.
What prototype is that supposed to represent? What would it be used for? Is that flat sideframe prototypical?
I'd like 2 pairs to fit onto Atlas boxcars if you are willing to post to the UK.James

From what it looks like, it's just a "tinplate style" (à la AF prewar 3/16" O gauge) representation of a bettendorf or similar friction-bearing truck.
