Hello Again George...
I should have phrased my answer more precisely too. If the track and
wheels are gauged properly, it won't matter which part number you buy.
Both will work just fine. I believe the so-called "NASG" wheelsets are
probably built to the current NASG standards. I am not sure what the
so-called "S scale" wheelsets are built to -- perhaps the older NASG
standards, but that is just a guess on my part. A phone call to NWSL
will clear up that particular mystery in a hurry.
My point is that regardless of which wheelsets you purchase, they
should be inspected with the NASG gage and adjusted/corrected if
necessary. Probably the NASG wheelsets will require little or no
adjusting whereas the so-called "S scale" wheels might need to be
tapped with a hammer.
You might read the NWSL pamphlet on S scale wheels that Bill Roberts
mentioned in his message. Maybe there is a clue in there. He even
provided a link for clicking. Good guy, that Bill.
Good luck...Ed L.
