A side frame (8) for a railway car comprises a pedestal jaw (10) and an integral crown shaped pedestal jaw roof (20). A snap-on liner (28) matching the shape of the crowned pedestal jaw roof (20) is removably mounted to the pedestal jaw roof (20). In operation, the crown shaped pedestal jaw roof (20) and snap-on liner (28) reduce wear on the pedestal jaw roof (20) and permit swinging of the side frame (8) relative to railcar axles. The integral crown shaped pedestal roof (20) and snap-on liner (28) eliminate the traditional rocker seat, shims, and welded retainers, thereby reducing the maintenance and cost of traditional side frames.
Longeron (8) pour wagon, qui comporte une patte (10) de plaque de garde et une voûte (20) de patte de plaque de garde d'un seul tenant en forme de couronne. Une garniture (28) installée par enclenchement dont la forme correspond à la voûte (20) de patte est montée amovible sur ladite voûte (20). En fonctionnement, la voûte (20) et la garniture (28) réduisent l'usure de la voûte (20) et permettent l'oscillation du longeron (8) par rapport aux essieux. Ladite voûte (20) et ladite garniture (28) éliminent le besoin de l'élément à bascule, des cales de nivellement et des organes de retenue soudés, ce qui réduit la maintenance et le coût des longerons traditionnels.
