Can-type motor for Mantua locos?

[Anonymous]

I recently purchased an old Mantua prarie-type locomotive in HO scale, but it is really noisy! What kind of can motor could be easily adaptable to this model without a lot of re-gearing? Thanks!

What you want is a Helix Humper from Alliance Locomotive:
