Definately check the gears for a crack or debris.If you know how,pop off the worm covers and remove the worm and shaft and try the motor again.If it runs you have a bind in the mechanism. Also check for a loose brush or cap on the motor.As for the other locomotive,GET THE WD40 OUT OF THE GEARBOX.It will eventually eat the plastic.For lube I use Labelle grease and oil.Make sure they are plastic compatible and use sparingly.Hope this helps,Dan
