I have over 300 die cast scale steam locos going back to the early 90's.No problems with ANY of the die castings whatsoever.

then your one of the luckyones ..After seeing that thread..one guy has the scale lionel s2 turbine that is blistering badly..man im glad I didnt forkout 1200.00 when it first came out...lousy puller too.. My 3rd rail S2 turbine pulls good..The proublem is ,as Id said keeping trains stored in the attic and basements isnt a good idea since both places have moister..=can cause corrtion.. New stuff isnt made with love and care and pride that we build in the US..Thats why the postwar stuff can take a beating and has lasted for a long time too..
