Thanks Kevin. The magic number.... 12mm. I will order a set just to be on the safe side, rather than ordering for all my diesels. As I said before, the XPT/HST sets are a no brainer but I didn't want to commit to buying 5 sets for my other NSWGR locos before knowing for certain. Thanks again Cheers Col

Thanks again Kevin, for responding, but I am still not any closer to an answer to my original question. What are the diameters of the Peter's Spares Lima replacement wheelsets ? Is the small size a viable replacement for the Lima Aussie Locos? Peter's Spares informed me that the gear on the axle should be the same size, but the overall diameter of the wheel will determine correct ride height. Cheers Col

Thanks Kevin for your response. I am assuming the Aussie Loco Wheels would all be the same size. 42, 422, and VR B class. I have measured the 42 class and they come in at 11.3-11.4 diam. The Lima XPT should be the same as the Lima HST so no problems there. Cheers Col

Hello Everyone. I was wondering if anyone can provide me with the wheel diameters of the above items. I understand they come in two sizes (Large and Small). I am asking so I may ascertain whether they will be suitable for Lima Australian outline diesels. I did enquire of Peter's Spares and whilst I got a response, did not actually get an answer! I am hoping the small sets will be suitable for the Aussie Locos (nominal diam of 11.3 - 11.4 mm). Many Thanks Col

G'day Simon. Just sent you a PM regarding this topic. Cheers Col
