Reply to "Loud Lionel radar tower - how to fix??"

Gerald,

Sorry.....left the link out. Here it is: http://pictures.olsenstoy.com/cd/accs/acc197p1.pdf

 

The motor will attach either to the can that holds the motor or you have to make a "can" out of a bottle cap. As I said, the MTH version motor comes out of the can. It's an easy attach then. So, either yourself or one of the other guys who are doing this project has to take apart the top of the tower and look at the motor mount and determine if the motor is removable. If not, you have to jerry rig the attachment point. There's also jerry rigging involved in attaching the armature of the motor to the shaft on the radar dish. I found an easy solution for that with mine, but I'm not sure if it will work for the LIonel. Someone has to get that can apart first.   You will also have to jerry rig a cap for the motor to cover it. None of this is rocket science or real difficult, but you will have to tinker and modify. The end result is well worth it.
