Is Frank Timko OK? Does he still sell AF flywheel-equipped can motors? I've emailed and left him a voice mail message on his phone, but have not received a reply. Thank you.

Send him an email, I get pretty good response from Frank using email.
I need a motor to fix loco. I would really like to email Frank Timko. Where is his contact info? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks 😊

He's been swamped with work. I just got some AF can motors from him, but had to ask him a few times. Keep trying.
Does anyone know if Frank Timko is still around?
His website is down and his phone doesn't ring.
Fearing the worst!
I'm sad to say I never got to meet him in person when I was home in Ohio before he passed last August. https://ogrforum.ogaugerr.com/...c/177257758581474362
Sadly, Frank Passed away last fall and his family did not want to continue the business. I have not heard if they sold it or worse, scrapped his tools.
There is an announcement on the PortLines website that Frank has passed. His flywheel can motors are no longer available. Check S-'n-S for a substitute.
Frank passed away in August.
Its sad another one of our icon's are gone. I ordered a wheel puller from him in March 2023, and sadly never got it. When I realized it was time to reach out to him and see if he made it, I saw the post in the forum on his passing.
I'll just consider it a donation to the family.
