I think you mean "bogie" plates.  Bogie is another term for truck, or • simply
the wheels.  The 4x6 plate with a pin that holds the truck to the train
plate is called the bogie plate.

That would be true, if LD had listed bogie plates for sale, but they
haven't.  They have listed boogie plates though, and the picture, I admit,
looks suspiciously like a bogie plate. ;)

They've been listed as "boogie plates" in the online catalog for a couple of
years. Interesting to see the error still being propagated.
