This request will not be accepted.

Although only four of these are used in the instructions, the set does come with
eight of them.

Randy,

If only four of these are used in the main build/alternate models, shouldn't
the other 4 be listed as extra pieces?

That is not how we define extra pieces.

The definitions for the different inventory sections can be found here:

https://www.bricklink.com/help.asp?helpID=1562

Specifically, for parts in the "Regular Items" section:

"Regular Items - Parts required to build the main model and any secondary
models plus any other parts on the official parts list. In the
absence of an official parts list, the official parts count, the instructions,
and/or images on the packaging are used to determine as closely as possible the
contents of this section."

I have emphasized the part that is relevant.

Cheers,
Randy

Randy,

Ok, thanks foe clarification. Could a note be added that only 4 wheels are used
in the build but 8 were included in the set?

You got it!

I have added an inventory note to the inventory of the set:

https://www.bricklink.com/catalogItemInv.asp?S=60051-1

"Although eight black 55423c01 Train Wheel RC, Spoked with Technic Axle Hole
and Rubber Friction Band are shown in the parts list and included with the set,
only four are shown to be used in the instructions."

Cheers,
Randy
