Looking at this very simplistically, just take the wheel off the right hand
side and fit it to the left hand side, and all should be well. In other
words, the wheels are identical.
(Thats the way I reckon it should be, and I am sure someone will correct me
if I am wrong!
Oh, and what loco is it?

Subject: [modeleng] Balance weights
I'm just about to fit balance weights on a loco. I've got a photo of the
right hand side of the prototype. The coupling rod pin is at 12 oclock. The
balance weight is at 3 oclock. I know the crank pin is at 6 oclock. Where
does the left hand weight go relative to the left hand crank pin?
