RE: [CBQ] FW: Wheel

Dave-

Years ago, before political correctness took over, I would have said it was a wheel from a  Polish track speader (the flange being in the center instead of the inside edge) but today that would be offensive, so I have to say I don’t know what the wheel is from.

Hi all,

This one stumped me…initially I thought it might be a wheel from a farm implement, but I’m not sure.

If anybody has an idea of what this wheel might be for, please chime in!!

I bought some old Railroad Property and was told it was part of the old CB&Q line. I found an old Railroad wheel on the property. I was wondering if anyone could tell me what it was from. It is a relatively small wheel, measuring 29" tall. The lip or rib isn't along the inside of the wheel that you typically see, it runs through center of the wheel. I have attached some pictures. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks
