I have used the Peco ones successfully in OO and N but I would certainly look at the new SS from Cobalt if I needed to fit any now.

The Cobalt SS point motors are very good and if there used to move 2 points, like going from one road to another the Crossover Kit allows 4 motors to work as 2 individual pairs for £15 a point......this YouTube is more about getting a led indication but does show one working....
