Cypress Engineering
          Model Railroad Products



The Flea™ is the first in a line of unique model railroad products based on a revolutionary micro motor with integral gear reduction. This drive unit is approximately 1/80th the size of conventional units. All products based on this drive unit come with integral DCC decoders for ease of installation and operation. The most recent version is the FleaII

The FleaII™ integral switch, switch machine and decoder is currently available for Peco® Code 83, Atlas Super-Track® 83, Shinohara® Code 100 and the entire line of Walthers® Shinohara®, HO scale Switches. It will be available for other switch lines in the future.

The FleaII™ switch motor/decoder is not sold separately. The precise alignment and intricate assembly techniques required dictate that it be shipped only as a complete, factory assembled unit. This guarantees proper operation and eliminates all tedious mounting and alignment operations for the user.

Look for more unique and innovative model railroad products, based on this micro drive unit, from Cypress Engineering in the future!
