100		AAR 50 Ton Freight Truck Instructions to make a North American AAR 50 ton freight truck/bogie. This truck design requires the use of non-LEGO® brand brass tubes which are used to mount the train axle wheels. Suitable brass tubes can be obtained from K&S Metals (P/N 8127 or 9821). The train wheel assemblies can be either the older or newer variety (P/N 2878c01 or 2878c02); however the newer variety requires a new brass axle to be cut from 0.081" diameter brass rod (K&S Metals P/N 8168). Credit to Cale Liephart and Dan Aubin for input on this design.	4	C
