I have 3 n , (yes I SAID N!) Rivarossi/Atlas 0-8-0 switchers. One motor is shot so its out of question. The other it seems like the motor gets power but, the motor won't run. I have cleaned everything including the motor! Now what?

I own one and have repaired a couple, their motors have contact points that carry current through tabs. Make sure they are clean and firmly against their contact points.
