Nope.

Not buying it, Doc.

ETT, ETT Special Rules, ETT Special instructions
accompanying the ETT all closely examined. NOTHING
about restrictions on wheels.

Any Superintendent bulletins, general notices or
other notices or bulletins that were in effect when
the timetable took effect would have been incorporated
into the new timetable. As would Mechanical Department
bulletins or instructions.

A close look at the rulebook in effect at the time shows
zip, zilch, nada about wheels.

Again, how would a crew determine what kind of wheels
a car had without actually looking at each wheel for
stampings?
