In response to the trueing up of the wheels. I'm a service technician on a fleet of Dash 9 G.E loco's in Australia and the wheels are re-profiled when damaged or worn to prvent uneven diametres of the wheels which can cause the locomotive to suffer from wheelslip. A wheelslip problem can cause the train to slow and in turn take longer to reach the final destination on time. On the Dash 9 G.E locomotive you have the ability recalibrate the wheel size through the D.I.D panel in the drivers cab. Cheers from B.T
