Take a look at this topic: http://www.modelrailforum.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=979

I've tried the Conrad motors and find them a little too fast and tricky to install. They are only about 7 Euros each.

I prefer the Tillig motors that have options for frog polarity and control panel lights.

I also found them too fast when given 12 to 16 volts. However, at about 7.5 volts they are quite a bit slower and quieter. I have a plug-in AC to AC transformer which has a control to alter it from 3V to 12V in steps of 1.5V.

That's a good idea. I have a 16 volt bus that I use for points. Perhaps I could set up another lower voltage point bus to use some of the Conrad motors that I now have spare.
