Interesting!

Hopefully ,if your Loco was a pre-production model. Mine got a better Canon motor in it, Lol!

That I doubt Rick, .....John reports multiple Cannon failures in field, .....there’s a small tang molded in the brush holder of the Cannon that had broken off and was flying around in the top of the motor. This also allowed the brush to get cockeyed and touch other things it shouldn’t .....like the shaft and bearing,.....a dead short going somewhere to happen,....😬
