Product Information
Specification

This Kit is a low profile 6 volt CD Replacement Motor kit for the Lima Models  Locomotive Range, and is compatible with both HO & OO Gauges.

DC Voltage droppers are not required for use on DCC systems as the decoder's speed curve can be used to suit your needs. I do recommend that CV 2 Starting Voltage is set to a value of 0 (Zero).

This Kit is suitable for the following Lima locomotives:

  • Freelance 0-4-0 DS
  • Class 26
  • Class 27
  • Class 33

Fitting Lima 9mm CD Replacement Motor Kit to Lima Deltic

12345
Fitted one of these kits to my old Lima Deltic and the improved performance is great. Nice steady pull away all the "Stop - Go" pull aways have gone and now performs much better overall. Didn't fit voltage dropper at first but realised I needed to when my 4 year old grandson gave it a couple of laps at warp 9 lol. Overall very pleased with kit, nice and simple to fit and recommend to anyone with a suitable old Lima Diesel.Edward Stone (22 Jul 2025, 22:27)

Great product

This is a really excellent product. I have three Lima models, all upgraded with this easy to fit motor. The first motor took me 40 minutes to fit, and the second and third less than 20 minutes each. The models run so much quieter, faster, and draw far less power. This is a simple inexpensive upgrade bringing old models back to life and running better than new. I watched this excellent video on youtube by 00Bill - this shows how straight forward the replacement is. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n3e-ICJNzMsMichael (26 Jun 2025, 20:40)

CD Drive Conversion

Awesome way of bringing old locos up to the modern day spec, easy to retrofit, runs smoothly and doesn't put too much load on the decoder unlike the old ring field motors did , takes about 15 mins to install mathew kelly (12 Jan 2024, 16:57)
