John At the risk of the wrath of the "professional" purists and rivet counters, since the difference in diameter between 40" and 42" wheels in S scale is 1/32", can anyone actually tell the difference without putting a caliper on the wheelsets [at least when it is on the locomotive on the track]? Besides, one the protoype they turn the wheels to true up the profile, so if they are in service very long, they aren't 42" diameter wheels after a few months of service anyway.
Just an observation, not an objection to your view of the known universe. BTW, I got Vol 14 of the RPC, so I will send an updated index with all the issues in the next few days.
