Thank you Sir! I have done that, just wondering if anyone had any experience or preference in terms of brand.

On30 / On30 Engine Maintenance/Lubric...
Last post by Mark B - May 30, 2024, 11:35:13 PM
Many of us have been running our On30 steamers for quite a long time, most likely with little to no maintenance. Is there any information as to lubrication of gears and bearing surfaces?
I have some trepidation about opening an engine and having parts go flying to all corners of the work bench. Hopefully any information would provide a guide to accessing critical areas for each rod and geared engine as well as types of lubricants to be used. I know there was a VHS tape that Bachmann put out a long time ago, but mine probably got tossed when my VHS player quit working a long time ago.

I am also looking into this for my engines. I'm Thinking a laser cut box may work well. If I make one up ill let you know.

Hey everyone,

So I thought what better place to ask this question?

I am looking for options to store my engines and trucks. Boxes would be preferable but I'm honestly open to pretty much anything that will keep them safe.

Please post suggestions here, thanks in advance.

Donald and Douglas are currently out of stock, so we deactivated the web store listing. However, they are not discontinued and should be back later this year.

EDIT: We've reactivated the listing for reference (they are out of stock)
