The PaceMaker is a self-contained power pack upgrade for the popular Hornby 'Pacer' DMU and is available in three reduction ratios - 27:1 for normal main-line running, 36:1 for enhanced low-speed performance and 48:1 for ultra-slow running.
 
Any make, gauge or size of wheels can be fitted and conversion is straightforward, with minimal modification to the Hornby floor. The simple fold-up etch includes a compensated rear axle and parts are included to allow close-coupling between the power and trailer cars.
 
We also offer a none-powered version of this kit and, unless you have very tight bends and/or steep gradients on your layout, one power car (with added weight) should be able to handle a single trailer.
