Adapting 'old skool' N gauge wheels for 2mm FS track?
Right, decision made, finescale track is the way to go...
...so the tricky question, how to adapt my existing N gauge kit to suit? Remember, I am not using points at this stage, so this contrived N/2mm FS approach just needs to result in trains smoothly scooting past without derailing, rather then navigating through a maze of junctions (not yet anyway )
I reckon my Minitrix Ivatt (which I am determined to keep running in light of all the recent modifications it has had!) will need some attention, to the wheel flanges, with a lathe.
The question is, how much? The wheels rattle almost imperceptibly over the track chairs, so the flanges are (just) bashing into them. Has anybody else done this sort of work to a model of this, ahem, vintage?
