Wheels.....

Hello all,

I am currently working on the conversion of an old Peco 4-wheeled open wagon into a mini water tanker, for a special project.

I need a set of 12mm pin point disc wheels, with a width of 25mm. Most US and Bachmann On30 stuff is 26mm, and "ordinary" HO wheels seem to have diameters up to 10.5mm, with some 14mm available. Somehow, 12mm seems to be hard to find.

The original wheels on the wagon are 12mm x 25mm, but are spoked, not disc.

I know that they are available, as I found a brand new set in my junkbox.....alas, only one set, though!

Can anybody from UK or Europe or USA give me a clue as to where I may be able to source these things?

Many thanks to all.

Have you had a look at Hornby replacement wheelsets? I've replaced alot of my Bachman wheels with the spoaked ones but they do make the disc type as well. They come as a 10? wheel st. Also here in New Zealand we have 'North Yard' who make a whole range of wheel types and diameters. Just google them.
I'm going to live forever; or die trying

Hi Linzthorn,

I'll give Hornby a try, as well as your Kiwi North Yard....

Thanks mate. ;)
