Zusammenfassung:The present invention relates in general to cast steel alloys for railway car components. More specifically, but without restriction to the particular use which is shown and described, this invention relates to an improved Grade B steel composition for use in manufacturing railway car components. A high strength steel alloy for use in manufacturing railway car components. The alloy has a chemical composition that meets the industry required specifications for B grade steel and exhibits better mechanical properties, such as higher yield and tensile strengths. Secondary benefits of the inventive steel alloy include enhanced weldability and improved fatigue resistance.
