motor cars was the picture (No.11)I addressed to you in message 157.
These used Brush type D equal wheel trucks - a type that rarely had
both axles driven on the Auckland cars.
On the other hand Wellington had nothing but max traction trucks
(again, exc their 4-wheelers).

Were there any such creatures in NZ/OZ, i.e. two-motor equal-wheel
bogie cars?
