    In my defence, in my 40 years plus working for BR, Midland Metro and 3 Heritage railways I have hardly ever heard the word chassis used, always frames or underframe.

    Passenger-carrying vehicles with trucks/bogies may have been introduced in the USA before Britain, but some British locos already had bogies, so the word was already in use over here in a railway context. Which isn't surprising as it was a Geordie dialect word for a cart, possibly cognate with American "buggy".
