Hi 

I'm trying to replace a missing wheel on a Bachmann 1860-80 era ho scale combine car. I would like to know what wheel size was used on the car.

I don't have a caliber and no plans to purchase one.  I have looked at the Bachman site and there is nothing about the wheel size in the description. online search hasn't been successful in finding what I'm looking for.

Wheels are covered on pages 278-292.

Hope this helps.

The model?

Probably a 33" wheel on the models.
