I guess, I should have been more clear. You had measured the wheel
width and compared it to the prototype--my thought would be that the
Lionel wheel should be very similar to the American Model's wheelsets.

. . . . .how do they compare with American Models diesel wheels, which I
thought were #125 also.

Compare in what way? They're not interchangeable - at least the entire
wheelsets are not, because of the bearings and gears. Whether the wheels
might be interchangeable - slide off - push on the axles, I don't know.
They look shiny like nickle-silver, which might affect the adhesion.
Neither wheels nor axles are attracted by a magnet.
That's all I know now.
