My brother has become a model railway geek - making money at it too, so I shouldn't be too rude about him !!
Any way he was on the phone to ask about restoring the strength of small dc electric motor magnets - seemingly the motors from older model railway engines (1960's etc) have detachable magnets and he reckons they've lost their strength.
Googling "make a magnet" seems to suggest that all that is required is to put them for a period into a strong magnetic field - ie a coil with a dc supply. Anyone anyone any experience of this ?
Thanks Rob
