Description

This site is dedicated to providing reference manuals and services focused on the maintenance and repair of electrical components found in model trains. Electrical components are the things that make a train "A Train", and not just a mantle piece or doorstop. You may have heard words like "armature", "field", "coil", "motor" or "solenoid". That's what we're talking about here.

The period chosen for the launch of this website spans from the early 1900's through what has come to be called the "postwar" period (1945-1969). Many of these components have been around for 80 to 90 years, while others were more "recently" manufactured in the late 1940s, 1950s, and 1960s. What they all have in common is that replacement electrical components are no longer available from the manufacturer(s), with many already well-beyond the end of their expected operational life and showing it.

So, for those who like to do it themselves (or want to learn), we will be offering a series of manuals with all the specifications required to troubleshoot and fix electrical problems. For those who don't, we offer reasonably priced services guaranteed to bring your trains back to life.
