Reply to "SOLVED: Need help with conventional operation of Railking subway"

A fully functioning KW should have no problem operating this set.  Try lubricating each of the eight wheels on each of the non powered cars. After applying a drop of oil to each wheel, spin them with your thumb to get the oil to work its way into the block that holds the axel.  You should notice the wheels spinning easily after a while. Then oil and grease the engine lightly per the engine instructions. If this is a used engine, check the gears to make sure there is no debris stuck in there, slowing down your engine and remove anything if you see it.  Doing all that should help ease the drag of the non powered cars and smooth out your engine.  If that doesn’t work, you either have an issue with the KW or the engine.  

I actually did all that.  The engine was jerky at first, but smoothed out after I lubricated everything.

I could blow out the gears.  It doesn't say to lubricate the gears.  

Any ideas about how to check the engine?

Thanks,

John
