I wondered if anyone knew the wheelbase of the Kato Siemen's Charger ? I wa thinking the truck wheelbase (believe it's longer than the standard 9' or 9'4" of other B-Bs) and the measurement from outer axle to outer axle over the whole loco
bogie or truck wheelbase :
O O
I________I
and outer axle to outer axle measurement over chassis:
O O O O
I__________________ __ _______________I
Best regards to all

Hi there,
On our Kato ALC-42 charger I measure:
Truck: .732”/18.6mm average of inside and outside of bearing on truck frame
Overall: 3.85”/97.9mm while resting on straight track
Hope this is what you’re looking for
