re-motoring Mantua locomotives
Posted by CP5415 on Wednesday, July 16, 2003 2:32 PM
I have an ancient Mantua 0-6-0 with tender.
I was wondering if anyone has some insight on what type of motor would be best to replace the origional motor with.
It's one of my dad's & I would like to see it run again

Thanks

Gordon

Brought to you by the letters C.P.R. as well as D&H!

K1a - all the way

One of a few possibilities.
