Maintaining and servicing your locomotive set
Lubricating your locomotive set
H elp your Lionel locomotive set lead a long and productive life on your railroad by
maintaining it properly. To keep your locomotive set lubricated, we recommend that you
purchase a Lionel Lubrication and Maintenance Kit (6-62927), available from your authorized
Lionel dealer.
When you find that the lubrication points illustrated in Figure 5 appear dry, lubricate your
locomotive set after you have removed any accumulated dirt and dust. There are two basic rules to
keep in mind when you are lubricating your locomotive set: use only a small amount of lubrication
and avoid getting grease or oil on your locomotive set’s wheels, roller pick-ups, or the track.
