Lubricating your tie car
Figure 3. Lubrication Points
H
elp your Lionel tie car lead a long and productive life on your railroad by maintaining it
properly. To keep your tie car 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 3 appear dry, lubricate your
tie car after you have removed any accumulated dirt and dust. There are two basic rules to
keep in mind when you are lubricating your car: use only a small amount of lubrication and
avoid getting grease or oil on the wheels, roller pick-ups, or the track.
