The results of a static test of a Barber S-2 freight truck conducted to measure the stiffness and friction parameters of the modes of deformation which are being used in various mathematical models in the railroad industry were presented. Some difficulty was first experienced with the truck hardware since it was in an essentially new condition with many high spots causing interference. No difficulty was experienced once the interference was removed. The characteristics of the Barber S-2 are very similar to the ASF ride control truck. The major difference between the two trucks is the amount of friction between the bolster and side frames in both the vertical and lateral directions. The Barber S-2 has approximately twice the friction the ASF ride control truck has in the fully loaded condition. This does not necessarily imply that all trucks will have this same ratio of friction. (Author)
