Maintaining and servicing your set
Y
our animated gondola is equipped with a gear drive mechanism that propels the two fig-
ures around the crates in the center of the gondola when the car is moving.
Occasionally, the worm gear may need lubrication. It is important to inspect the worm
gear periodically. If you see little or no lubrication on the worm gear, it’s time to add a small
amount of lubricant. See Figure 13. We recommend that you purchase the Lubrication and
Maintenance Set (6-62927), available at your authorized Lionel Dealer.

completely.
