ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE An improvement is provided in a pedestal liner for a railway vehicle. The railway vehicle includes pedestal trucks comprising pairs of pedestal legs and a journal box disposed between each pair of pedestal legs, each journal box having a vertically disposed planar central guide surface and a pair of vertically disposed parallel side surfaces disposed on opposite sides of the guide surface. The pedestal liner is roughly U-shaped having a bight and a pair of parallel legs and being for disposal between an associated pedestal leg and journal box. The novel pedestal liner comprises a continuous uninterrupted metal backing material defining the bight and parallel legs. A first anti-friction material for the bight is, supported by the backing material and is adapted to engage the guide surface. A second anti-friction material for the parallel legs is supported by the backing material and is adapted to engage the side sur- faces. The backing material provides optimum structural support for the anti-friction materials. In the novel pedestal liner, the first and second anti-friction materials are polymeric materials having different wear characteristics.
