Folks,

These may be of interest to owners of models which have the old upright (Ringfield) motors.

These are direct replacement.

These are C.Sine drive motors.

I have not tried these,but once the house move is over

The Modeltorque motor looks promising

All the best

Although I personally have not had any experience of these motors, I have seen glowing reports about them. I have not seen one single negative comment.

i have done a modeltorque motor and ultrascale wheel conversion and i couldnt believe the difference.

Even just changing the wheels made a big difference but then i hanged the motor and it quietly purred away.

low speed is very good but they also break the sound barrier.
