Lima Shunter Replacement Motor Kit

I bought one of these replacement motors to go into an old Lima Class 08 shunter which had one of those old noisy 80s style motors and it was so easy to install. Everything lined up perfectly with just a couple of wires to solder. I also converted it to DCC and it runs really well, it's so much quieter and smoother than it was. The thing I like about this motor is that it's just plug and play, you don't have to push the gears onto the spindle of the motor, they are already installed and ready to go. The whole job was completed in only a few minutes. A very easy and cost effective way to improve the running of your old Lima locos.SAJ (30 Oct 2025, 16:53)
