You can see the pillow blocks going into the tubbing. This caught my eye and looked interesting. What is inside? is there anything inside?
If anyone has more detailed photos or maybe a nice explanation, i would greatly appreciate it.
thanks!

There are pillow blocks on each side of the rectangular tubing supporting each wheel's shaft. On the inboard side , there is a cantilevered sprocket, except in the center where there is the gearbox.
The wheels are cantileverd on the outboard side.
