Title: Streetcar wheelbase and wheel diameter?
Post by: VIGNOT on March 27, 2014, 05:17:15 PM

I'm planning to buy a Bachmann G scale streetcar (Model: 93938) but I want to know the wheelbase and the wheel diameter.
Could you help me ?
Thank you all for your answers.

Hi:

My trolley motor block has a 86mm wheel base and a 38mm wheel thread diameter (more or less, because it's quite difficult to measure).

Hope it helps

ON real streetcars East troy open car 21 has 26 inch wheels that are 12' apart. normally street cars have small wheels so the car is closer to the ground. need more info just ask.
