Please note that the worm gear is NOT included and must be removed from the original motor. Instructions on how to do this using only basic tools are included in the kit.
A note to N SCALE modellers - this re-powering solution fits within the outline of the original motor and can be used to re-motorise the original loco (docksider or switcher) and larger locos without modification.
Early Version Chassis
Also note that this kit is designed for versions of the Bachmann 0-4-0 sold from the 1980s-2000. It does not fit some of the very early versions of this loco without modification and has not been tried with any of the recently released locos. The early version docksider had the motor mounted in the body of the loco, not attached to the chassis. This type of loco may also be distinguished by its complex plastic valve gear rather than the much simpler metal valve gear fitted to later versions. If your motor is attached to the chassis this kit will fit without modification, if you have the early chassis do not despair as the re-motor kit can still be fitted but you need to make an extra hole in the base of the cradle and shave away the plastic chassis somewhat.

You can buy this kit online from my ONLINE SHOP
If you have purchased mini motors from me previously and just want to purchase the cradle components I can make these available on an individual basis for the difference in price between the motor and re-motor kit. Please email me if you want to pursue this.
