Hi Peter: I have a North Yard powered frame that I purchased to go under my Railmaster S2 kit, however North Yard unit will need lots of tuning (it cogs badly) and additional add-ons (flywheels and universal joints) in order to make it approach the current performance of my AM Baldwin power. Thus, it went to the storage shelf to be looked at again "one of these days".

The AM drive parts could power something else, or be sold off to compensate for the cost of the replacement drives. Pieter E.
