Hi Sebastian,
Yes, thats correct, it is the 'train wheels 2' sans the *@$$% holder. As for
your second question, in MLCAD, the wheels without the holder are just that-
wheels without the holder. Whats missing is a metal axle which connects the
wheels to the holder. In real life, if you turn a train wheel upside down, this
is clearly visible. Crazeed's model is built by removing the wheels with the
axle assembly from the wheel holder- something which I'm quite fond of doing
too- since it allows more options for authenticity when building a train.

Me too, and I've been wondering the same for a long time. It looks more like
lego's own BI, rahter than the 'computer-POVray generated perfection' one
commonly finds.
