[8D] Greetings again from the rainy Northwest! I have a A-A set from AHM that is by appearance old. This is a model of (as near as I can tell) a Fairbanks-Morse diesel unit, in HO. The fine print on the undercarriage says made in Yugoslavia. The powered unit still runs, but is loud and a bit jerky so I'd like to try and re-power this and then repaint as well. Any ideas on new motor(s) for this old girl? I love fixing things and learning a new skill but haven't had experience with this particular job. The dummy unit has lights, and should have plenty of room I would think for DCC and sound equipment. I love reading on the forum and appreciate all the advice and tips. Have a great week-end [:)][:)]. <br /> Dane <br />UP 4ever
