The tutorial includes both AC-locomotives, DELTA- and the different generations of DIGITAL locomotives. A "first stop" problem-solver if your Märklin locomotives are stopping without reason, not starting, going too fast (strong) or too slow (weak). Hope you like it and find it informative.

Joined: 03/08/2011(UTC) Posts: 1,571		Another great video Martin! These will also be very helpful for newbies in the hobby. Even though lubrication can be a bit of a hot topic, I think video would have benefitted for showing where to lubricate the first loco you did and how little of oil is required. Got a feeling that many newbies end up over oiling their locos and create more damage than good... Brgds Lasse

Got a feeling that many newbies end up over oiling their locos and create more damage than good... Brgds Lasse Hi Lasse! Thank you for feedback! :) Your point is good and valid.. Maybe add a scene lubricating only the motor plate/rotor axis with a tiny amount of oil. Then leaving the rest out.. We all know how it is... Märklin recommendation in the manual is, in my opinion over-lubrication. This leads to dirty tracks and problems. So.. How to make a tutorial? I didn't want to make any other recommendation than what Märklin does. I didn't really want to recommend the lubrication suggested by Märklin either.. So.. It ended up with just a short reminder to lubricate before use and a short reference to the manual.. I'm trying to be both politically correct and not too far out in practical either.. In this forum we know the better way... :)
