Newt posted:Is it possible to add traction tires to a Lionel GP-9 (single can motor) with magna-traction? The magna-traction is dead on this loco and even if it wasn't, I'm using Atlas-O track (non steel track). Any thoughts on how to improve traction would be appreciated. Thanks.
As Pete said, use Bull Frog Snot
It works very well, is easy to apply and isn't visually obtrusive. WE've used it a l;ot at the HO club I belong to. I've used it on a Lionel 1862 GHeneral that couldn't pull its own train, and now it pulls fine.
