A reinforcement of the truckarch bars was made by placing a piece ofthe same dimensions as the bars (ij^x3inches) on the upper bar, of a length suffi-cient to receive the four column bolts. A test of the strength of the bolsters forboth body and truck was made, which boreout the calculations most method of testing the reinforced bodybolster is shown in Fig. 4. together with 828 LOCOMOTIVE Halt Top View Half Bolcom View Fig. I Nor.
