Found 11 auctions last week with Tyco PT motors and parts in them from one Seller. I missed winning a few, but got plenty of parts motors to keep me going awhile! Here's a picture of them, just arrived today. Got loads of spare gears and housings to probably repair anything I have now. Also bought the mounting rings, tops and bottom sections. Got outbid on the tender drive motors in other auctions. Oh well, didn't really need them, I only have one Royal Blue and the engine is missing parts.
I did get one tender drive chassis and motor, so I can play with that one, and a few tender drive motors in with the regular PT motors. Half have most of the gears, the other half are missing most of the gears, but all have the armatures and plates and such. Wish more had come with axles, but they never showed up in any of the other auctions this person had. Oh well.

Well, I COULD bolt them under a layout, and use the large gear to drive some animation features.  I'll have to check my other junk boxes to see if I have any Tyco axles from my other purchases. But for now, they'll be stand-by's for repairing those I have which have broken gear hubs, of which I have a few. Guess I can scan the auctions for Tyco axles now.

Hi Jerry,
If you need axles I have a few that are not doing anything just laying here in a case.
