Hi Jonathan,

the wheels with the silver rims of the 4460 electric engine are from a small
engine of LGB garden trains. They have been a little expensive (~ 50 $), but
they look great and you can put a technic pin with roundhead just between 2
spokes.

The smaller metal wheels are from LGB too (from a draisin or something like
that).

The black whhels are from Playmobil: you find a (updated) link from my page to
Playmobils service. I think they are produced by LGB also, since Playmobil used
LGB track in the past.

Regards,

Ben
