Lochee Car Truck
The Lochee cars were mounted on E.M.B. swivel-axle
trucks with a wheelbase of 8ft 6ins. The wheels were 27 in in diameter. The
braking equipment was of Electro-Mechanical-Brake Company's design using
both Hand wheel and track shoes. These can be operated either by hand or
power (air and magnetic). The electrical equipment was of English Electric
design, each car being fitted with two 60 h.p. high-speed , light-weight,
ventilated-type motors, fitted with Skefko ball and roller bearings.
The beautiful model truck was made for me by
Leo Taylor.
