Basically I have heard them mentioned as a source for wheels for loco
projects and wanted to find out what they offered. I am planning on
converting a Roundhouse Lady Anne kit into an American style locomotive and
wanted to see if it was easy to get spoked wheels.
Chris,
Let us know how you get on. Every year someone asks this question, and until now has hit a brick wall!
There are very expensive solutions - a firm in the NW US recently advertised in Garden Railways, but they want $20 per wheel approx.
Vance has been water-jet cutting spokes in cast iron, but the spokes aren't well defined or shaped. He'll probably
comment and corrent me!
The latest MTH and Aristo locos have decent wheels but they tend to have too many spokes for a NG loco.
