Refine your search to Blomberg locomotive truck brake block or brake block linkage.

The air brake systems that I use to work on were much older, so this “newer” stuff is something I never messed with.
 
well I found this, it's a video about rebuilding a gp9 and in part of THE 40 MINUTES they show the trucks you can see it here
still not quite what I'm looking for but it's great
 
ok... I made a 3d model of the truck. it took me 2 days, but it's now almost done. If you want detailed photos email me and tell me what you want.
I have a few photos though, it is made in blender
