While searching thru a storage cabinet in my office tonight I came across my Sperry Rail Car that I bought

about 5 years ago from Walthers, I had completly forgot that I had bought it. While looking thru the papers

that came with it it states that you must lubricate the gears and motor before using it.Does anybody out there

have one of these on their layout and how well does it run after you lube it. I gave it a test run and it was a

little jumpy.Not realizing that I had to lubricate it before running. It is kind of a neat lookingthing to have on

the layout.                   ron netti
