If Lionel won't come out with scale drivers, a person could always do what
HOer's did in the past with Rivarossi flanges. Turn the loco over, run it at
medium speed and carefully use a mill file, checking with your NASG gauge as
you go.

Interesting idea. I looked at the highrail wheels that came with my U33C
and the flange was very close to what we call scale. Not much turning would
be required. But the wheel-to-wheel measurement (check-gauge) was way off,
too close.
And if I were turning down wheel flanges, I think I'd try to get the
wheelsets out of the truck somehow to keep the filings out of the gears.
