Running In Locomotive Models
What is running in & why is it recommended?
To get the best out of a new model or one that’s been serviced it’s recommended to run the model in. In theory running in a new model or one that’s been serviced should help to give it a longer service life. Running in is good in that it will show up any issues, or identify things that may need adjusting or a case of very slight issues. It helps bed in gears, bearings, motors etc. Running in will or should give a much smoother running model that will give many years of good service.
