    Your advice is excellent and true. This is a very informative video which will help people who are learning these locos. Your older videos of the Pendulum Reverse have helped me immensely.

    Very informational and applicable to other brands. After watching your video especially the commentary, I changed an early Flyer motor to full power to the field and the brushes and just like magic, it will start from a dead stop every time. Before, wired the other way 50% of the time it would require a push to start. Thank you so much.

    Good info. The final drawing was exactly what I need for my basket case 33.

    How does the termination of current make the pendulum reverser move?

      The pendulum reverse assembly contains a contact sub-assembly that hovers above the top surface of the motor field laminations. When power is applied to the motor, the resulting magnetic field will pull the moving portion downward, and the contacts will open. When power is interrupted and then re-applied, the contacts will close and activate a solenoid that moves a set of pendulum-like contacts which reverse the direction of current flow to the armature, thus reversing direction of rotation. Some assemblies are also wired to activate the proper headlight associated with direction of travel.
