Source for Micro Trains Motor

[RR_Mel]

If you can’t find a motor I have a small Philips that you can have for the asking.

 

 

This is a motor that Motorman sent me to test.  The RPM is a bit high (9K) but it has plenty power.

 

Over the years Motorman sent me a lot of motors to test for him.  He was a great guy and a great source of model railroad motors.   I really miss the Motorman, RIP Eldon Shirley.

 

EDIT:

 

The weird looking thing on the shaft is a piece of tape for checking the RPM with my laser Tach.
