Not sure how to answer you Bill.

The plastic wheels in the kit that I bought from Bill Roberts measured to 33¡±. ?I used 33¡± wheels from American Models. With your missive in my head I was curious as to what I would find when I worked through the instructions and installed the Kadee couplers in gear box part of the body spacer.?

As you can see in the pictures I sent, they work with the gauge on the track at the back of my work desk and work with the other stock on which I have Kadee couplers. I was surprised given what you had commented.?

Some blow ups of that test track at the back of my desk attached. Sorry, I do not have an exact pic of the car mated to the gauge. ?There is also a very short snip of two of them connected to my GP-35 with Kadee.?

I am curious how a correct coupler height was achieved with the first release car sand normal sized wheels. I am running custom 26¡± wheels to lower the cars to correct coupler height. With the built in draft gear there is no way to make any changes. ?

Thank You,
