under-floor mechanisms to power your trams
BELOW FLOOR TRUCK DESIGN BY TERRY RUSSELL
"Ultrascale" gears are available again enabling me to produced my popular "below floor" trucks using the LH21 motor and 21:1 ratio gear
set giving an overall truck height of only 19mm.
For heavier models or exhibition use I recommend the H1024 motor and 30:1 ratio gear set. These trucks are 21mm high
to the pivot plate on a bogie and 20mm overall on a 4 wheeler thus requiring a slight protrusion through the floor of the model.
Both these motors have adequate power
to propel a card or resin model, but give better running with modern electronic control.
A new service is now available where by all motored trucks can be made DCC
"decoder ready" but the customer must please stipulate this requirement when ordering as it affects the motor truck wiring.
"O" GAUGE MOTORED TRUCKS
These are ready to run on 24.5mm or 32mm gauge track or other track gauges to special order.*
They are fitted with a 12 Volt DC motor and
un-motored versions are available but these are intended for STATIC models and can not be motorised by the customer to save money! Any side frame listed below may be selected.
4 WHEEL C2, C4, C10, C12, C15, C16, C21, C23 & C27.
8 WHEEL C3, C5, C6, C7, C9, C11, C13, C14, C17 to C20, C25, C26, C28 & C29.
* PLEASE STATE 2-RAIL or OVERHEAD POWER SUPPLY WHEN ORDERING TRUCKS
