Overland Brass Locomotives
Posted by wdytid on Monday, September 9, 2002 9:00 PM
Does anyone know what brand of motor is in HO scale Overland Brass Locos and if you can buy them seperately without having to buy the whole locomotive? I have one OVL locomotive and eventually I hope to buy a second OVL loco, but I can't afford to shell out another $600-$800 right now. Until then, I would like to power a Rail Power shell/chassis to run behind my current OVL loco. I would greatly appreciate the info! Thanks.

I have contacted Overland and just received their reply. They said it is a Canon Japanese motor and they can't sell them seperately. I've looked for this motor in the Walthers HO catalog and they don't carry them. I tried to find it on the web, but was unsuccessful. Does anyone know how I can get info on this motor? Any suggestions?
