Amen Alco Fan! I Need To Make A Youtube Account. I Have Some Footage on The Old Fort Loops Of A Oakway Leasing SD60(no 9079). Also Got Some Footage From My Summer Train Trip To NYC. Rode The Amtrak Carolinian. Good Ride, And Fantastic P42 Engineer. It Was Constant Horn For About 30 Minutes!

One of the quirks these Tyco Operating Boxcars have is clearly shown in this video, the tendency for the crates to stick inside the chute. I was having this problem with my 5 repainted Operating Boxcars when I discovered a simple solution, lubricating the chute's slide with powdered graphite. Powdered graphite is not sticky so it won't gum up the works like oil but it is slick enough to allow the plastic crates to slide freely down the chute.
