CTA 4000 Series Car 4412 Trailer Truck         
Each CTA 4000 Series car used two different types of trucks: The power truck was 6 6" wheelbase with 34" wheels. The trailer truck (the car is not a trailer, just this truck which is unpowered) was 5 6" wheelbase with 31" wheels. This is the trailer truck and the top of the wheel is relatively distant from the car bottom due to its smaller wheels compared to the power truck that has larger diameter wheels. At the Illinois Railway Museum.
