ColinB Posted December 3, 2020 Share Posted December 3, 2020 This is for information only. I wanted to fit a TTS decoder to my old Lima class 66. I tried unsuccessfully to get it to work but I suspect the motor was hitting the current limit of the TTS. So I was thinking of putting a new Hornby drive unit in as you can still obtain these, but this meant modifying the chassis to take the new motor. Imagine my surprise when searching through "Peters Spares" to find you can buy the new Hornby chassis as a spare part. I then thought will my old Lims body fit? Well I ordered the motor bogie, the new Hornby chassis and a new non powered bogie and amazingly it all fits. The body the weight the cab units, the only thing that didn't was the buffers. So if you want a better Lima class 66, this is obviously the way to do it. Of course my TTS now works properly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
