Reply to "What To Use To Keep Rubber Tires From Coming Off Of Scale Steam Locomotives Drive Wheels?"

I agree with most here, replace the tires with new ones. I put away a diesel and steam locomotive in the original packaging for 2 years after running them quite a lot. When got them out and started to run them again the tires started breaking and falling off. Fortunately I had replacements for both locos, and they were off and running again. Forget glue! I keep a supply around for each engine in sealed air tight containers. While we humans need oxygen to survive, rubber tires don't, they just oxidize and fall apart. Also, if any oil lubricants get on them, that is the kiss of death too.
