Don't know if you have tried this or not yet, but call or visit a car manufacturing company like Itell Pullman of Danville Ill. Or Natnial Car Company.    

Hop this helps,

 Hi all.

 Okay, lemme tell ya. I cannot find a spec sheet describing a 40" or a 42" wheel. I'm scratchbuilding a Bomberg-B type truck and I have to make the wheels. I'm going to scratchbuild the first one and have a buddy make resin copies, but, I can't get the dimentions anywhere. I even went to a Metra yard and asked there. Nothing. I've looked through this site, Trains, and many others. I've done keyword searches, asked fellow railroad modelers I know personally and yes, even went to that yard.

 

 Where do I find specs on just a wheel?

 Thanks ahead of time,

 CuhailCool
