Wheel-set Needed!
The Friends of SP 4449 are in dire need of a disc brake wheel set so we can have our locomotive support car "Gordon Zimmerman" with the Eastbound movement to Owosso, MI for Train Festival. We need this wheel set to complete the Gordon Zimmerman's Amtrak Certification. Here is your very rare chance to ride the cab of the 4449 at mainline speed for segment of around 100 miles, service stop to service stop. The Friends of SP 4449 are not looking for the funds of the wheel set, we physically need the wheel set in Portland ASAP. This cab ride opportunity is not for sale, it is a thank you for the donation of one wheel set. Sorry, no guests. Available July 4th, Spokane WA, onward, you pick the segment.
Specs:
6 X 11 roller bearing
36" hub stamped wheels with at least 1 1/2 inch tread
disc brakes
