    I recently purchased a Rivarossi Berkshire, but it seems as if the tender wheels may have been replaced with smaller wheel sets. What would the original scale wheel size have been? Scale 36, 33 or smaller? Thanks ahead of time for the help

    Hi from Cliffwood Beach, NJ

    I'm kinda new to this website. I came here to get advice on how to rebuild some old HO scale trains that I picked up, especially a beat-up but kinda cute little 0-4-0 loco from a company named Rivarossi. I'm going to make a thread full of details and pix of this little train.
