This is the hopper or ballast wagon.
I have some of these, some missing wheels and some with poor looking wheels that have been converted to DC by drilling the wheels and putting a plastic sleeve on the axles.
Those that have these wheels really do not run at all well on my M track!
Can anyone help me with the correct Marklin number for AC replacements? Alternatively a source of cheaper replacements?
Also, how do you measure a wheel? Diameter including flanges or without.
There is one set that looks as if it might be original. Axle stepped Axle length 25mm Wheel diameter including flanges 15mm Wheel diameter excluding flanges 12mm
Any help much appreciated, when I know what i'm looking for I'll post in teh 'Wanted" section
