Hello!

I am repairing a Lemax Toy World #45063 for our train club's holiday layout. I believe the motor is bad and I was wondering if anyone knew of a source for this motor. Lemax carries very little in the line of repair parts. I tried an internet search, but could not find a motor matching the specs.

If there was anyone who could help, I am sure they are on this forum  !

Any help would be appreciated. Email is dheban@roadrunner.com

Thanks

I did an ebay search for 12 volt synchronous motor and came up with one pretty close to what you have.  I think the hard part would be mating up to what you are running meaning the shaft size and configuration.    If that is flexible you have a better shot at it.  If those leads on your motor don't go to anything else , you could use a different voltage motor.  24 VAC is a lot more popular.  The rest of the info you need is right on the back of the motor you have.   5-6 RPM,  4 watt and CW (clock wise rotation)  You don't want the ones that state CW or CCW as you cant control which way they will turn. Don't go any lower than a 4 watt motor as that is the torque required to run your device without stalling - you can obviously go higher. Hope this helps a little.   JP

Speaking of eBay, there's someone selling a Lemax Toy World with "no movement."

Is the "lid" to the can welded or can it be removed by bending some tabs or whatever?  It appears the 49TYJ motor comes in various voltages and speeds.  So if you can't find the exact 12V 6 RPM model, I wonder if you can mix/match parts. 

For example, I'd think a plastic pinion gear on the motor shaft in the center of the can could crack/fail and could be replaced.  This is probably the most common reason O-gauge crossing gates stop moving.  If you turn down/off the sounds can you hear/feel the motor spinning?
