[CBQ] Re: Upgrading an HO NPP 4-6-0

[Kenneth Martin <kmartin537@surewest.net>]

Ray,

I have two, one painted, one not. When the motor in one burned up I  
stole the motor out of the unpainted one. To remotor it you need a  
motor thin enough to fit between the firebox sides.  I found a couple  
of NWSL 12270-9 motors that fit but I haven't put them in yet. (Too  
many projects.)
