I have tried to fit the 9V motor to the Hobby Train Tram.
The tram has 2 bogies on 8 studs long, the other 9 studs long. The picture shows

does not appear to show this.
The only way I could it wo work & look good was to replace the 9 stud bogie miss

with an older style with more holes.
I'm not happy with this result - the pictures show 9V motors - has anyone else
had problems?
