That LEGO wheel is probably more representative of a 19th century european 4
wheel car’s wheel arrangement than anything else.

And what did 19th century American wheels look like?

Not like that. I’m having trouble with Google, it keeps returning pictures of
LEGO trains for all the search terms I used, not particularly useful, so I don’t
have a pic cite for you, but trust me.

What you’re saying is, it doesn’t look like anything current.

No, that’s what you’re saying I’m saying. :)
What I’m saying is what I said, it looks like 19th century euro stuff...
Besides, American rolling stock, with few exceptions, has been 4 axle or more
(and hence, using trucks that don’t have individual axle springs) since before
1860. Unlike Euro stock which switched relatively recently and in many cases
still is only 2 axle.
