Was wondering about suggestions for better quality DC can motors for Lionel trains.
I have some of the lower end sets and even more expensive items and the motors seem to burn out easy compared to most other products on the market; Old K-Line, MTH and the brute reliable stump puller Williams engines.
I do not want to just order more of the same motors from Lionel??
0-6-0 switcher engine, Thomas engines, various Christmas sets etc.
I tend to keep the cars behind the Lionel engines short few cars and light weight but do like to run the engines for long periods at shows displays.
They will get a lot of use.
Never a problem with other companies they are reliable and run for hours over many years?
But what about replacement for the Lionel engines?
Here is a recent 4-4-2 engine needing a motor and same motor from a similar 2-4-2 sitting on top??
