Tom, the arch bars are not only correct, they are stenciled UTLX and are the very ones that were removed from the narrow frame cars long ago. The Friends work in Alder Gulch earned us more than a dozen back. Now the 'old trucks' are going under the Gramps cars getting them closer to completion. These trucks are in such great shape, that a replacement of journal oil and thorough inspection was all that was needed. :-)
