2156 Tender Bearings

[NW Mailing List]

The 16 Y-6a and 19 Y-5 tenders were all equipped with plain bearings.  There 
was a proposal in 1944 to apply roller bearings to these tender axles but 
the streamlining of the K-2's having tender roller bearings was done 
instead.

Is 2156's tender riding on plain bearings or are there roller bearings
hiding behind those journal lids? Is it known which tenders received
roller bearings and which kept the plain bearings?
