[MRCG] Wanted: TDE motor-generator

[Paul Thekan]

Hi Robert
 I get it..motor driven gear as intended is very cool. Tom OPE with his TBM
run on the original MG set takes the prize!
  Ok on it looking like you can salvage some of whats left of the previous
supply. When you have figured out what course you're going to take on
powering up the TDE and you need some iron get back to me and I'll see what
I can get together for you.
