Forgive my lack of rail wheels. I haven't bought Gringott's Bank yet.
What do you think?

Are those little small wheels supposed to be small train wheels or road wheels?

If the former, this isn't a highrailer, I don't feel, as highrailers have
both road and rail wheels.

If the latter, they're awfully small for road wheels. I'd want to see a
proto pic if at all possible before I could comment further. Perhaps you
could dig up the link after all? Was it Fairmont?

What's the link to the town post (assuming it has more detail on what you
were trying to accomplish)?

Thanks. (BS on a weekday afternoon is pretty busy... I had to multitask for
about 10 min before seeing the first pic.. perhaps the other two give more
detail, I could not say...)

(...) I'm assuming they're supposed to be train wheels given the comment about not having any yet. (...) I agree, if it only has one type of wheel, it isn't a highrailer. Whatever it is though, the model is certainly nice. Frank (22 years ago, 17-Dec-02, to lugnet.trains)
