Manchester Metrolink M5000 – now with ALX drive!
The Manchester Metrolink M5000 with car number 3096 is now available in a new drive version.
In the current version, the model is equipped with a revised drive system: two interconnected ALX coreless motors ensure especially smooth running and excellent driving performance.
In addition, the model features a NEM651 interface for easy digital operation. For optimal performance, we recommend the ZIMO MN170N decoder.
A real highlight and a must-have for all model tram enthusiasts, offering superb running quality and modern technology.
Note: A sustainable motorisation kit for the Manchester model is currently in preparation and will soon be available as a new item.
