Maintaining an On30 Shay

[canpac]

I just recently bought two new Bachmann ON30 shays and there were no instructions included as how to maintain them re where to apply oil or grease and how often to do so. Would appreciate some tips . Thanks

Take care though no oil on the top motorshaft!. It can run down and may cause a short. Take just a wee bit of thick ball bearing grease instead

You're welcome.

Off the topic: many, many years ago I visited Peggy's Cove.
I still have a can with wind from the bay of Fundy..............

Hope you  Bachmann trains the way I do

Cheers
