In the process of restoring a AF prewar 629 engine. Existing wheels are swollen would like to make this piece operational again. Are there any vendors that provide reproduction wheels for this engine?

I don't think there are repo wheels for these. Probably scrapping them off an existing loco is best....
Hennings?
Not those wheels. A lot of other, but not those. They would be a viable selling repo part as the have gone bad on many loco and streamliner.
Is that the steam wheel w/ the wrap-a-round rim like the electric wheel? If so, that is on the drawing table for fall production. Harry 
Harry these are steam wheels with a nice wrap around rim. I have attached photos.
Thanks George

Gotta be careful with repo prewar Flyer wheels - the kinda coppery looking repros for the 574 are for show only, they don't work properly when putting power to them. Your best bet is to find a chassis with intact wheels.
