Default Wheels, UC, T16?

On the G503 forum there is a posting from a contributor in the US who has 6 wheels he would like to positively identify. They appear to be carrier of some type.
The posting can be found in the 'Other MV's,US' box under 'Tracked'.

centers are too small for carrier. No idea, not seen them before.

Default These wheels were made for rolling.

Seems like they may be a good candidate to go under a Ruston Hornsby or Ronaldson Tippet or some such piece of machinery.

They are common machinery wheels not carrier at all.

They remind me a bit of the baggage wagon wheels one used to see years ago at railway stations, when the trains were pulled about by those big smokey thingies that snorted and hissed a lot.
