You may have answered this on an earlier page..... sorry if I missed it....But is there any reason why you seem so dedicated to this loco?I have had a couple. Got them to run pretty well. But I have sold almost every single loco that is not running on a low friction modern mechanism.The Walthers SW1200 is so much superior.
not speaking for russ,I will take such projects to learn how to effectivlyrepair or sort out such problems.and at this point he has a beauty of an opportunity.he knows the bearing are clean and that is the trick to good operations.... now to find a lubricant that conducts.
I am going to try more neolube in the mix to see if it gets conductive...based on what I have seen it is conductive, just more resistance than I think we'd like.
