Well, I may have some spares in the 4.5/12V type. [Red wheels, on a black
brick]
[The difference is that the 4.5/12 were on a 2x4 brick, whereas the 9V come
on a 3x4(6?) attatchment [not really a brick] with the suspension/connection
moulding of the attatchment outside the wheel itself.] If you look at the
wheels on a 7xxx series train, and compare it with a 4xxx, you'll easily be
able to see the difference.
