Model Railroading > Locomotive Gear Lubricants?Date: 05/25/16 13:35 Locomotive Gear Lubricants? Author: pwh Walthers is advertising Excelle Lubricants as a gear lubricant. Is this a good lubricant for gears for P2K, Athearn, Atlas, etc? Any other recomendations for lubs?
Thanks. Date: 05/25/16 16:20 Re: Locomotive Gear Lubricants? Author: DrLoco Yes, Labelle are lightweight gear oils designed for small things like our model trains. Like all lubricants, use sparingly.
