[SEL] Early Galloway trucks re-visited..possibly some new light

[Richard Strobel]

Howdy all;
  A while back I posted a similiar picture of the rolled I-beam with "Jones 
& Laughlins" rolled into it.  Here's a pix I took yesterday..sorry for the 
focus:

Well the other day, friend Corky got a book on Lineshafting and such:

and it looks like not only did they do lineshafting equipment but also did 
trucks:

and wheels:

So possibly J&L built the early style trucks for Galloway.

My sawing outfit is possibly an add on..and rolled into it is "Illinois."..

Do any of you see Jones and Laughlins on your trucks, especially the post 
1916 models.

I believe both companies became Pittsburg Steel or American Steel...one of 
those.

Well I found it interesting..hope ya did the same
