One of my Stainz (Meran) has a poorly motor - 3 amps on the Navi scale......

Somehwere in my spares box is a re-con motor.
A mere 5 minute job the replace. :)

Any road up, it was a lovely day, and trains ran.

I did Frank.
I like all my motive power to be fully operational.
I have run out of spare Buhler motors now though........

I suppose 4 motor failures on a total in excess of 80 locos in 12 years of running isn't too bad.

And you run your railway regularly - almost every day if I remember correctly.

Work and other commitments seem to take a lot of time at the moment, but it's always good to run trains when time allows.

On the contrary Frank
I'm still racing bikes - I've had a couple of third places against lads in their twenties.
This is me racing - the picture was taken about 5 weeks ago.
