Maintaining and servicing your Locomotive
Lubricating your locomotive
H
elp your Lionel locomotive lead a long
and productive life on your railroad by
maintaining it properly.
We recommend you purchase a
Lionel Lubrication and
Maintenance Kit (part no.
6-62927), available from your
Lionel dealer. Two basic rules to
keep in mind: never over-
lubricate (a small amount will
do), and avoid getting grease or
oil on the locomotive wheels,
contact rollers, or your track.
