@Bill Swatos posted:These are really nice; they look better than my overheating much newer MPC turbines. You've worked wonders. Again. I wonder if I found an old slant motor (or two) and dropped them in they might run better than those in my locos now. Can't seem to find any in reasonable condition or price on the Bay, though. Unfortunately, I don't know where else to look.
Post some pictures of those engines with the boiler off, here are some pictures the top 2 are from Greenberg's 77-92 era, the bottom 3 are Greenberg's PW era this should help you, by looking at part numbers pretty much the same other than magnatraction axles, I don't see why you couldn't put a PW motor in your MPC, I had issues with a 76 Rectifier replaced with a PW motor and runs great. those turbines that I repainted were in bad shape they were so gunked up with fifty years plus of grease, breaking them all the way down and de greasing did the trick along with a good service. Hope this helps you Mark , call Jeff at the traintender he will guide you in the right direction maybe he has a motor.
