Looking for a drive to fit this?

[NYNE]

Is there a Kato or Tomex drive that would fit a Miniatures by Eirc PCC shell? I have a Bachmann PCC, but I figured if there is a better drive out there I would rather use it.

Tomytec makes a four axle tram drive, the TM-TR-01.

Hi Brian,

 

Another option is to get out a metric ruler and compare your shell requirements to the Tomytec chassis listing here:

 

http://www.trainweb.org/tomix/ChassisDim.htm

 

Tomytec power chassis are not kept in stock, instead being made for use with limited-availability unpowered models, so you may not be able to find the one that works best. But it's worth the try, since you may be able to get one that's a good fit to your car's dimensions and truck size.
