Slag Pot Transporters ?

[raildogg]

Not sure if it's the right place for this. I am thinking about doing a scratch build of one in 1/25th scale. I am the worlds worst net surfer and can't seem to find the over all width of one or even the common tire size. I have this though they use small earth mover type tires. What is a small earth mover? Every one I've ever seen is huge big man. So does anyone know what size tires are used on small earth movers? I must have a known dimension to scale the images I've used as references. HELP!!

I have seen those spec sheets but they don't give dimensions or tire size. I think they may be a vehicle that has many user defined specifications. I may not find one measured example ever!

Can you post a picture of what this transporter looks like.

Almost. On that sheet, in the upper right hand corner, is one pictured very close to the one I want to build. A " U " frame tractor type. I have an image from the patent application I found on Google Images. The necessary information I seek is the very large rear tire. What are the dimensions, i.e size, width, height, rim configurations, that sort of thing. If I knew the outer diameter alone, I could scale my cad drawings and get the size very close to the real thing. I think this will make a fine trailer load, real big stuff!.
