Product Details

UPC: 9145386316763

Brand: Tramfabriek

Short name: Model train accessory

This motor kit upgrades many Graham Farish models from the Poole era to a silent and smooth running 12V motor. This is a simple, but major upgrade for this model and it runs like a brand new train. A step by step on-line manual will assist you with it. Fast and efficient email support is also available. Please read the important notes below before purchasing.

Suitable for the following models: Class 20, Class 25, Class 31, Class 33, Class 40, HST Class 43, Class 47, Class 50, Class 52, Class 55, Class 56, Class 57, Class 91. This motor conversion kit is NOT for later models made by Graham Farish (China).

Offer includes:
5 x high quality 12V coreless motor 8 x 16 mm with two shafts.
5 x silicone tube

For this conversion, you'll have to open the model, following the step by step instructions on the Tramfabriek website. The old motor has to be taken out and is not needed anymore. This is a simple procedure and can be done with a small flat screwdriver.

Not that it is a very difficult job to install, but you need to know the following before you get started with this kit:

The only thing that is different from the usual Tramfabriek Drop & Go motor upgrades, is that a small bit has to be milled. This is an easy 20 second job, but you need a round milling bit (available on eBay) and ideally a bench drill. It can be done with a normal drill, but then you'll have to make arrangements to keep the model in place.

Check the gears on the wheelaxles. On my model, 5 out of the 6 gears where split. You need to replace any split gear in order to have a well running model. These 16 teeth gears (Bachmann art GF2504) come in packs of 6 and are not expensive. They can be bought directly from Bachmann or 'farishnspares' in the UK, who ship world wide. With a Tramfabriek Gear Puller one wheel can be taken off and after replacing the gear, you can press the wheel back on with a vice. It really is not a difficult job.

For any help or advice you can always contact me. I'm happy to help.

About Us

Tramfabriek & Son

Luc and Sven van der Hart

My name is Sven van der Hart (1970) and live in Eton Wick in England. I started designing the first small model steam tramway locomotive in 2012, as it wasn’t available at that time. Initially it was only for myself, but very soon people discovered that I was making this very detailed loco, and even before it was finished, the first orders came in and the Tramfabriek was born.

For my modelling, I needed specific parts which were hard to find. The parts I couldn't buy, I had made. As I wasn't the only one who was looking for those parts, I shared them on my webstore. With those parts, the customer base started to grow and it became a full time business.

Feel free to contact me if you have a question. I normally respond very quick (remind me, if you didn’t receive an answer in three days, I get a LOT of email).

Regular updates on model building, all my other creative inspiration and behind-the-scenes photos you can find on my Facebook page.
