KW Trams Motorised trucks HO/OO gaugeKW Trams now manufacture the previous wide range of BEC built, ready-to-run motorised tramcar trucks and bogies. Those listed here are designedfor our model tramcar kits. Some of the truck features are: • The trucks are designed with RP25 wheels for 16.5mm gauge track to

universal standards (e.g. PECO track) for both HO gauge 1:87 Continentalmodels and OO gauge 1:76 scale British models.

• The trucks are wired for two-rail current collection, although they can bealtered by simple soldering for operation with a live overhead andcommon track return.

• The trucks use a powerful Mabuchi motor and the current consumption isabout 0.3 Amps at 12V DC. They use 20:1 reduction brass gears forrealistically slow, trouble-free running over a long working life andinsulated, blackened, brass Romford wheels of sizes 7, 9 and 10.5mm.

KW Trams Fixed tram trucks HO/OO gauge

These mechanisms represent the fixedtramcar trucks fitted to short 2 axletrams. The ME34D09 truck illustratedhere has a 34mm wheelbase, 9mmwheels and both axles driven. • The longer trucks have two axle drive

and the shorter trucks only have asingle axle drive.

KW Trams Motorised bogies HO/OO gauge

These mechanisms represent the swivelling, short bogie trucks fitted tobogie trams and to older articulated trams. The MEEQ equal wheel bogiesillustrated here have an 18mm wheelbase and equal 9mm wheels. • The bogie trucks only have a single axle drive because of the limited space

between the axles for the motor. • All the bogies are supplied with 9mm wheels for the driven axle. The

trailing axle normally has 9mm wheels, except in the case of themaximum traction bogies which have 7mm wheels on the trailing axle.

• A single motorised bogie is sufficient to drive the weight of a plastic tramkit, so all the bogies are also available in unmotorised form. However,most models run better when fitted with two motorised bogies and withadditional weight in the tram body. Simple soldering can be used to wirethe bogies together to share pickups.

• The bogie trucks are usually supplied in pairs as a reversed pair of bogies,ready wired for mounting symmetrically back to back, with commonelectrical return through a metal tramcar body. When ordering, pleasespecify tram type for the length of the wiring.

• The bogies are supplied with a flat metal bogie bolster, for fitting the bogieinto the tram, and a press stud pair for pivoting the bogie under thebolster. The female press stud is mounted with the springs aligned alongthe tram body. Cyanoacrylate superglue, Evostic or epoxy resin glue maybe used for fixing the bolsters and press studs.

• The prices below are each for a pair of motorised bogies with bolsters andpress studs.
