LAWRENCE KLOSK METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR TRANSPORTING WHEEL AND AXLE ASSEMBLIES ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE Three flatbed trailer trucks are provided with subway wheel and axle assembly receiving racks. The racks include parts fastened at locations spaced to receive the wheel flanges therebetween. Each part includes up- standing elements cooperating to form a semi- circular recess to receive a wheel and a rigidity enhancing member extending perpendicular to the plane of the elements. The driver transports an unloaded trailer from the yard to a first location where the assemblies are removed from the train. The driver picks up a loaded trailer, previously situated at that location, which is transported to the repair location. At the repair location, he/she picks up a trailer previously situated at the repair location, which is loaded with repaired assemblies and returns to the first location where the truck is unloaded and the repair wheels are reinstalled. He/she then returns to the yard with an unloaded trailer which is ready for the next day's route.
