A model train wheel designed for a 5" gauge garden railway wagon. The author notes that the initial version (v1.3) was constructed according to NEM 310G and may not work on standardized track. This redesigned version follows NEM 311G specifications to ensure compatibility with standardized track, though the author has not yet tested this specific iteration. The author reports printing the previous version in PETG, which broke after approximately two hours of use on train tracks.
