Back from the dead are two motors for a Columbia Graphophone Type A and an Edison Triumph Model B.

I had to make a make a new brass governor gear for the Graphophone motor as the original had split. If anyone else in this predicament note that the a Triumph governor gear is an interchangeable replacement. But alas, I did not know that till after the fact spending a bit of time hobbing a new one.

The Edison motor has a set of new second and third pinion gears, sourced from Traxxas 5652 (for RC cars), annealed and bored to the 1/4" shaft size. The motor board has been sprayed with galvanizing paint after finding evidence for such a thing. But, definitely not nickeled.
