Yeah, rubber rims on the idlers is wrong for sure. It doosn't improve the ride (the main reason for rubber tyres on road wheels) and, as the rubber wore away, the tracks would slacken and be more likely to be thrown. By contrast, worn steel return rollers, where they rubbed against the insides of the tracks, would be OK. This could be represented by graphite pencil dust, which, in certain lights, might appear black. Cheers, Chris.
Cute and cuddly, boys, cute and cuddly!
