Tsugawa

Conversion to 12V coreless motor

Tsugawa makes pretty nice chassis. With the Tramfabriek 12V motor upgrade they are even better! This is a simple replacemement, which can be done in 5 minutes. And you’ll be able to have a larger range to control your model and it can run with all your other 12V trains. You can even convert it to DCC.

This is a very simple installation.  


1. De-solder the wires.

2. Twist the motor out of the chassis. You can use pliers if you can’t get a good grip.

3. Pull the brass worm off with your fingers. If you have trouble, carefully use a flat screw driver and twist between motor and worm. Careful not to damage the blades.

4. Press the worm on the new motor

5. Re-fit the motor

6. Solder the wires to the motor

7. If you have a flywheel, place the flywheel
