On that particular locomotive, just add the front wheelset. The small drivers should allow you to use lead wheels in the 28 inch diameter range without looking real ugly and they might fit better in the space. There were consols with small drivers. Just find some pictures of the Baltimore and Susquehana consolidations, 51 inch drivers all the way. Small drivers on Consolidation locomotives were not all that uncommon, especially the early editions that worked rough terrain. Go for it. If you do not like the results you are out nothing, just take the lead wheels off and you are back to square one. <br /> <br />Tom
