Having fitted Peco wheels to all my rolling stock, all went well with the Farish wagons, but it was the single Peco wagon where the axles were too wide, were a devil to fit, and are now too tight to turn. Wish the above advice had come a few weeks ago! The problem now is that I can't get the axles back out again.  :doh:
Kipper, have you tried a 2LB knockometer?, if done carefully some of it might be reusable :doh:. Cheers john.

Actually, I have decided to try and cut the axles in half, so the pinpoints will drop out, then follow advice above (of enlarging bearing holes, that is). As it is an out of era wagon, I could junk it, but it was bought by an unaware friend, who will notice it is not on track!
