Awesome! Thank you for the reply. I've read a little bit through the maintenance & Repair sub forum. There is a lot of stuff in there! Is there a specific place you can point me that takes about lubing cleaning like you mentioned? I'd appreciate it

Also, good to know there is a bit of a break in period. I'll run it for a bit and see if starts a little better at slower speeds.

Last question. Can i get any track labeled "Fast Track" for this train? I noticed there is "Fast Track", "Fastrack" (that could just be a type for fast) and a few different types of "0" tracks.

Thanks again for the help!
