Recently we had alot of rain & our sump pump went out in the night. & our basement flooded about 6-8" I was in the process of going through my stock, most of my stuff is in plastic totes which survived. But I left a few cardboard boxes on the floor for the evening, So I had about 30 peices of rolling stock & 7 locomotives that got drenched & still in their boxes. The rolling stock I can manage, But I am wondering what I should do with the locomotives which are powered, Most were never used yet & a couple have a few hours on them. Is there anything I should do before I power them up to see if they work. I just want to avoid any possible damage to them. I'll turn them into dummy units if they don't work.
