ABSTRACT:
A pedestal wear liner for trucks of diesel electric locomotives and other railway vehicles has a bight and a flange on each side. Each flange has openings in it corresponding to liner bolt holes in a pedestal leg but greater in area than those holes. Plugs which can be indexed in those openings are provided, one set of plugs having bolt holes aligned with pedestal bolt holes arranged in a first pattern; another set which has bolt holes aligned with pedestal bolt holes arranged in a second pattern and so on so that the same liner can be adapted for several vehicles.
