Great page, Ben--very informative! I have an old motor from the 70's from an
unknown set; I'll have to take a close look at it to see which variety it is.
One small nit--the red 12V motor came in the 7750 as well as the 7727 and 7730,
didn't it?
Regards,
Alan (who still has no red 12V motor in his collection...)

That's exactely right! Only in these three models.... That's why it's so rare.
I didn't write that on the page otherwise I had to tell where the yellow 107
comes from, where black 100 have been part of sets and so on...
I think one could write a small book on Lego® motors and you could fill a whole
enceclopedia with Lego® bricks history.

Ben (owner of 4 red motors, over 80 motors in total....)

And the 7750 also had what would be considered one of the rarest train
pieces around, the red bogie plate.
