Did the humidity change abruptly?
Here in Sunny Southern Nevada we had a humidity spike, from our usual single digit up to 60 percent as a wet cold front rolled through. It's still at 21% - or better than three times normal.
Didn't have any impact on my layout, though. Let's hear it for steel benchwork.

When that happens I look for the cause and there is always a fixable cause..
I just operated 9 hours in the last two days with zero derailments at the Bucyrus,club-This is a old block building with lots of dust and humidity due to the door staying open for the fair goers.
