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:
3 x high quality 12V coreless motor 8 x 16 mm with two shafts
1 x silicone tube long enough to fit the motors in the model.

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.
