Reply to "Stevenson 0-6-0 Build"

Omigosh, those wheels are spectacularly bad!  I was about to contact Bob about buying a 2-8-0, with a view to using it as the basis for a NYC G-class.  I'm not put off buying it by this but I'm definitely going to ask him to not bother with wheels.  I love Slaters wheels, beautifully made, screw assembly, and surprisingly inexpensive.  Right now I am working on fitting Slaters #7851K wheels in an AHM 0-8-0 kit, my first attempt at actually building a loco with them - before this, I'd only seen & handled locos built by other people that were fitted with Slaters wheels.  The only complaints I've ever heard was that an axle screw has occasionally come loose and jammed the side rods, but that's easy to fix.
