I'd be more worried about the Paragon2 decoders than the motors. Half of my old BLI E7s and E8s have died from decoder failure  :RUEffinKiddingMe:

They havent died, they're just going into their cocoon to metamorphize into the butterflies they can become with proper decoders in them.

Unfortunately, when a Paragon2 dies it usually takes the rest of the ship down with it (via melting).

They're in good company with the Athearn's initial Big Boy run equipped with those infamous burning MRC sound decoders.
