130 motors

6 Replies, 7595 Views

Hi All,

I'm wondering a couple things about these 130 motors that all of our fun trains run on.  First, I notice that some have a red cap, some green (I've also seen blue, yellow and orange).  Are these color coated to mean anything?  
Also, does anyone know of a way to test the RPM of a motor?  Or even the relative RPM?  Basically, I have some trains that I would like to put a faster motor into but don't want to do the work just to replace with a similar RPM motor.

thanks!

update: just bought one of these. hope it tells me something
