Spectrum 2-8-0 Driver and axle diamters

Ahoy!

Since my models are currently packed up, I cannot measure my 2-8-0.  Does anyone have one they could take a micrometer to?  I need the axle and driver diameter both, if possible.

Thanks kindly!

I measure 0.058 and 0.376, respectively.  Overall wheel diameter measures 0.416, including the flanges.

Suspect the axle is metric, 1.5mm?

Yes, I'm quite sure it is metric.
