Hi, has anyone a copy of the drawing for the trailing wheels of a 5 inch gauge Stirling locomotive please. I need the measurements of the wheel. Thanks.

Here's a scan from my copy of the Scarth / Reeves design for the Stirling Single. They're old drawings and I know that Reeves updated and improved them later. It's not clear to me if the OD is over the tread or the flange.  No idea what "edge wheels" refers to.

To complicate things a little, the loco. side elevation, drg. no. 1, gives wheel diameters, showing the trailing wheel as 4 13/16" over the tread. Take yur pick! HTH.
