Truck components and grip mechanisms are interchangeable, although ISTR the Cal trucks have a slightly longer wheelbase. The Cal cars are too long for the Powell lines' turntables. About 30-35 years ago there was a move afoot to get that Sac St car running. At one point, I asked Charlie Smallwood about it, and as I recall he said the problems were overhang/clearance issues on curves.
