Secret Schnabel stuff

Hi Guys,

I am trying to build a span bolstered heavy duty flat car, and have
come to a blinding stop with the trucks.

I have tried everything I can think of and downloaded schnabel and
tank car models trying to figure out the secret of having 4 trucks
and 6 bogie pivot points but with no luck - also googled until my
fingers were numb - still can't find a solution...

Anyone have a heads-up on building span-bolstered trucks ?

best regards Richard Percy

Hi Enno, No the program just quits. No warning or anything which makes me believe that there may be a corrupt file in the program itself where the snow is...
