Hi wtsgmi1970, The caravan is an interesting oops, we find mixed wheels on regular wheeled models quite often but that is because the wheels were fitted at different times, Your caravan is different, It has an axle carrier so both sets or wheels were fitted at the same time, Yes it certainly deserves a place on the oops pages, I take it the fire engine also has a mix of solid and hollow wheels too, It's not easy to make out but that is more than likely due to my eyesight.
