Hello, I was just wondering if anyone might know what size traction tires would fit on a Lionel Hogwarts Express #11020 engine, and where I might be able to buy them? Thank you very much!

Not to be a smart---, but I'd look it up on the Lionel parts page first. They are sometimes iffy with traction tires, but may just have what you need.
The problem is, this engine uses very specific thickness and width traction tires for the large drivers that are unlike most other units. So I'm not aware of 3rd party tires other than buying from Lionel or a dealer who ultimately likely buys from Lionel.
Just search "hogwarts" https://www.lionelsupport.com/...tive-Only-7101069001
Direct purchase link for tires from Lionel parts (had to use the alternate part number)

I'm guessing you may be able to use an MTH tire on that as well, I'd probably use the MTH DE-0000027 tires.
Thank you very much, Vernon and everyone!! I really appreciate your help, I am new to this group. I was able to order some from the new Lionel Parts source! I love the modern engines, but not having to replace traction tire!
