Today on The Railway Room, I'm attempting to repair an original 1960s AHM Minitrains narrow gauge Baldwin 0-4-0ST. This H0n30/H0e scale loco was popular with 009 modellers at the time, although the mechanism isn't up to modern standards and many of these locos are now non-runners with split gears. Thankfully, the gears from the Tenshodo motor bogie turn out to be a good replacement with a suitable shaft adaptor so I have a go at making the repairs to an example that has been in my work pile for a while. At the same time, I replace the motor with a modern coreless example.
