I have a Lionel Atlantic 4-4-2 #6-28071. It runs at the same slow speed no matter the throttle setting. I assume it might be the motor, but Lionel does not even list this engine on their website replacement parts section. I have been told by Brasseur that these motors are not available. Ok, so what do I do now? Are Lionel motors that specific to each engine? Can't I substitute with a more recent can motor?

Before you replace the motor, have you tried unlocking the speed control?
http://www.lionel.com/media/se...artslistComplete.pdf this is a parts breakdown on your engine the motor not available anymore but had a hudson engine on this same breakdown said that motor was available but i looked it up said not available either that is an odd motor what i seen in the 4-4-2 engines this is the motor i seen used in most of the 4-4-2 engines and u may be able to replace with this two pic's posted
I'm with Chuck, first see if you didn't inadvertantly change the momentum,stall, or speed settings, page 14 in the owners manual. If that doesn't work send an email to lionels customer service "tech support". They should be able to give you info for a replacement.
