That Pittman I sent you Joe, for that Williams Challenger will be a shoe in for that MTH engine....it’ll work fine in that locomotive.....that Williams Challenger beat all of us .....Lou is correct, those GS shafts will fit just about all the big Premier, sans the articulated split frames....shaft length coming out of the gear box is the only factor, and making a custom dog bone with some brass tubing is a no brainer ...whole lot easier than attempting to shorten or lengthen the worm shaft....

Pat, thanks again. I have a page open with a parts list order for MTH. They don't show the motor, bracket, or flywheel available for ordering!

So I may have to get inventive with the flywheel?

They do show a modern motor number when you look up motor number

old number BE-0000030 = new # MA?
