Old cast iron radiators are pretty heavy, I know someone who used one
off of Fire Island a while back.
Where would one look for an old train wheel?

When I was a kid there was an abandoned tack with a switching station

eyesore. Now it would probably be a designated hysterical (oops, I
meant historical) site and grabbing an old wheel would be frowned
upon.

Do it at night, so you can't see the frowns?
