Take it easy, Bob. If these trucks came to Brookville together with Philly
PCCs, they are surely B-2s. But this design we haven't adopted in our small
country.
I have again looked to Dave's Train Pictures, Pittsburgh section, at Ken's
pictures (photographed by R. Hill) of carhouses and scrapped cars, but there
are only B-2s. I understand, that B-3 was not too widespread in the US, like
B-2.
I remeber an information I'v seen several monts ago that some of the newly
built PAT 4000s had entirely new B-3 trucks. But cannot remember who was the
manufacturer.

Boris
