If any of you have the new lionel sf northern 3751 you know the pilot wheels are very small for O54. Has anyone done a change to get bigger wheels up there. I have some pony trucks with big wheels but mount entirely different. Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

I believe the issue is the turning radius of the pilot truck with larger wheels.
The pilot would constrain truck movement with larger wheels. Pizza flangeitis, I believe.
even on 072
I have two that behave very nicely on Atlas O-54. I don't know if these pilot wheels misbehave on tubular or other brands of track but they have given no problems at all on my Atlas 54, 63, or 72 inch curves. I think Scher has a point about pizza flangeitus.
