Mileage performance between wheel reprofiling that is associated with nonheat-treated and rim heat-treated wheels applied to 3000 high-capacity ore cars is reported; train operating speed is in 35-mph range; data are presented which compare performance of two wheel classes and show life-range characteristic relative to series of wheels; effect that track condition and rail lubrication have on wheel wear.
