Hi Dan. Nice one buddy. Manor looks great. Got a few mainline locos now, they have a good lifespan. Layout looking fantastic 👌 Thanks Dan. Thumbs up thumped 👍 ... Pete and Su.....

[@carolinerogers1057]

Well done my husband has lost loads of springs to the carpet gods lol

[@johnbill9201]

Great video thanks Dan for sharing, I've got a few of those mainline locos & your tips etc has helped me and given me the confidence to tackle the serviceing, John

[@tombeck6335]

Well done Dan! You've certainly got the quartering down to a fine art,

[@rugglez]

You make it look way easier than it is....

[@donniblanco5239]

A Fine looking Manor, I’ve not tackled one of these motors yet, but I can use this video for reference when I do. Many thanks 👍🏻

Whilst better than nothing, I always use a conductive grease on axle slots of split chassis locomotives like this, as electrolube is so thin it just runs away like even quicker than any oil does in a non captive environment. Grease stays where you put it. Quartering is indeed a fine art. I find my “quarters” are usually too small.

As usual a great video Dan!!! Cheers Onno.

[@Wonlongpong]

Informative video. Thank you. Just a note, you won't get an electric shock from 12 volts DC, or indeed, the 9 volt battery . The resistance of the human body is too high for any significant current to flow.

[@dansmodelrailways7886]

Trust me, if you put your fingers on a split chassis loco and put the 9V battery on it you do get a shock.

[@thedepot7416]

I had one😁😁

[@gs425]

​@dansmodelrailways7886 Dan that is just the inductive kick back from.the motor coils. Its not a shock from 9volts.

[@TheAntisocialTrain]

Mine has completely given up the ghost, cant get it running. So, feel time is right to give it a bachmann chassis, which i prefer over mainline.

[@garethparkin9498]

Is that not a later Replica Railways locomotive? The motor is not like the earlier Mainline motors

[@gs425]

This has the "pod" motor that replica used. But it was also in later mainline ones too

[@DJ_K666]

I wonder how many springs I must have lost to the carpet gods over the years.
