In this video we look at servicing these faithful old motor bogies. The wheel bearings act as pickup return for the motor, but if worn or dirty this soon causes bad running. If only there was a way to both lubricate and clean these bearings at the same time!! Triang R156 & R225 Southern Suburban

I never service any of my models, but I do clean the driving wheels with a cotton bud or two when I need to. It also helps to clean the track with a track rubber, again I do it when I need to. A tip from me if you need it.😂

All models require some form of maintenance. Basic cleaning is essential but lubrication done carefully adds years to models.

I've used Electrolube/Powerlube in the past without issue but you are very right, tiny amounts only. Never over apply that stuff. BTW, viscous means thick. Thin or watery are good descriptions of Powerlube. Cheers!

Good stuff done right, cheers Gerry

I like the Peco electrolube and also use it on surfaces that need electric contact. I’ve never had any problems with it but you are right about using it sparingly just as you should any other oil. For gears I prefer to use a grease. Up to now I’ve used a Tamiya grease but can’t seem to find that any more so will be trying another.

Hi Robin, I'm a total convert to Labelle lubes now, 102, 106 and 108 in use all the time apart from on these bearings

Hi Mike, Interesting maintenance video. Didn't know about this Peco electrolube. I'm very sparingly with any oil on my model trains and have banned grease for it tends to get hard and collect dust. Would 'graphite' powder be a good substitution ? Cheers, Filip

Hi Filip, thanks for looking in. Not sure about graphite???
