Trailing truck:
The picture of the cast engine bed for the K5A/K5 rebuilding program shows no tail piece.  Biernacki, at p44, says< " . . .Erie did not choose to replace the rear frame cradle in order to apply a Delta cast truck. ."

Valve gear:
He also says, "The old valve gear frames were retained . . ."
