ABSTRACT:
A wheel adapter that adapts a conventional vehicle hub to a wheel having a large inward offset, thereby permitting the original wheel track of the vehicle to be changed to match the width of a railroad track so the tires of the vehicle will sit on the railroad track. The adapter locates the wheel to avoid contact with a brake caliper on the vehicle.
