Security Car Light Problem
Posted by laz 57 on Sunday, January 16, 2005 9:18 PM
I have a newer security car red and gray paint scheme. How can I get the light to revolve faster? I t goes very slow, is this the way it should rotate?

Try a little dry graphite lubricant.

Lazzie - sometimes, replacing the rubber drive washer with those 3 canted "fingers" on it helps...what happens when you put the loco in neutral and bring the track voltage up?
Small Layouts are cool! Low post counts are even more cool! NO GRITS in my pot!!!
