New Motors

[4Iucky]

Hello everyone, I was wondering if anyone knew where I could get some motors for some of my old tyco engines. I have about 3 of them that dont work, and I know that tyco doesnt make them anymore, but they have sentimental value and I would like to get them up and running again. So if anyone can tell me where I might be able to get motors for them, even if they are from a different company would be nice.

You should be able to find all kinds of tyco locos on Ebay.

Sorry for the comment but IMHO the Tyco motors and trucks are garbage. I just throw them out and re-power with Athearn Blue Box loco chassis.
The RS-18 is an old Life Like RS-11 slightly modified and mounted on an Athearn BB GP7 chassis.(this one is not for the faint of heart) Runs far better than the junk that previously powered it. The next 3 are Tyco's slightly modified to get the design I want and are mounted on Athearn Blue Box U33C chassis. The furthest in #2034 is a modified Tyco C430 and the other 2 have cabs from a C430 and long hoods from Tyco C630's.
I may be gutting out a few more Tyco's (some have never run, but that's no guarantee they will now) I can save them but Canada Post is not cheap with regard to shipping. I do believe the words "Rip Off" was coined for them.
