Replacement gear for Tidmouth Shed turntable UK

8 Replies, 2319 Views

If you live in the UK or just have one, there's a neat Tidmouth Shed turntable variant that's powered by your TM1/TOMY train. However, if for some reason your turntable is having trouble turning and the train is functioning on the turntable as it should, you might have a cracked/broken gear in the turntable which can happen for a variety of reasons (same way as the motor gear in your train). So I'm only here at the moment to guide you to the right gear to buy to replace that broken orange colored gear:

The cheapest way to get them is AliExpress, but I understand some people aren't comfortable with sites like this so here's also an Amazon link. It's a little more expensive but you get the security of familiarity.

They come in a pack so this is the gear you want to use:

Just cut it down to the same length as your broken gear and fit it in and you're set. (Use a box cutter, rotary Dremel, whatever suits you, just clean up the cut edges afterwards).
