The under frame is of the built-up type, being made of struc-tural steel shapes. The center sill is a box girder of the fish-belly type with bottom plates only at the cross-bearers and bers of the underframe for the full length of the car. At thedynamometer end 13-in., 32-lb. channels located 18/2 in. eachside of the center of the car extend between the end sill and thebody bolster to take the place of the center sill, which terminatesat the bodv bolster.
