“I have a brand new GP60 I just got out of my storage cargo trailer yesterday and discovered it would not move. I'm now in the process of cleaning out that 'peanut butter lube'. I also got out 2 GP20's, ...new as well.”
“Sure hope I don't run into the problems you've had with that GP30. I'm assuming most of these Proto GP's are similar??”
Personally, I wouldn’t put any engine new to me into service without a complete tear down, cleaning, inspection, including any additional tweaks, plus hardening the wiring between the rail and the decoder. YMMV!
