Rotarys, Flangers, and Plows! (Oh My!)

[Stewart "Start" Rhine]

I'd like to see us build a plow someday but if we can get a set of freight trucks put together and find a pair of 3/4 couplers they'll probably go on the B&SR tank car first.

Do we have extra couplers and trucks?  If not, do the other museums have spares we could purchase or trade?  Or for the long-term, do patterns need to be developed?

There is currently a set of spare passenger trucks.  If they were to go under coach 8 (which is currently on freight trucks) then there would be a set of spare freight trucks.  But the passenger trucks need an overhaul "( including the addition of brake rigging...) before going under a car, which puts their usage into the 'eventually' time-frame.  But, somehow that time-frame lines up perfectly with the completion of the tank car

*Sigh* Always does.
