Pat,

It has arrived. She's a beauty.
There are directions to parts that should be greased / oiled. Are you suggesting for this job I should take the shell off to get to the worm gear/bearings? There appear to be screws that I remove when needing to grease.

Thanks again.

John

John, if you’re comfortable servicing your own locomotives, then yes, I’d recommend pulling the shell off, and having a look around,…pull the grease cover, do the maintenance in there, plus, while the shell is off, traction tire swaps will be slightly easier, …..good opportunity to do fastener checks, and have a look at wiring etc, for potential future issues…..also, as I’ve mentioned before, if it moves LUBE it ….put a descent dose of lube on the motor shaft bearings …..while it’s sitting there staring back at you…..😉
