Hi Folks,
The Roanoke Zoo (Mill Mountain ZooChoo) kiddy train (G-16, 16" wide track)
has been inoperable for a few years and the 100hp Wisconsin VH4D 4-cyl
tractor engine (about 1970'). They would like me to fix it, don't seem to
know why it was abandoned. I think the engine is seized and the gasoline -
varnish. It has 3 cars and goes about 1000' back & forth. Has anyone
converted a mini-train, runs about 6mph for 8 hours?
Maybe a 8 or 9" Advance DC motor and control? Lithium LiFePO4 is nice (with
the attracted complexities of balancing/monitoring) but would ye-old cheaper
Lead work in this application (maybe not run time).

Restored mini train, better color photos, enthusiasts:

Have a renewable energy day,
