Hi guys, anyone on here ever had to remove the body off an NCC loco, as I may have to do that very soon, also what type of oil is best to use when applying oil to the area's on a loco, thanks in advance,

Do you mean the Jinty? The screws are hidden by the couplings - http://locoyard.com/2013/07/07/bachmann-3f-fowler-jinty-dcc-fitting-guide-dcc-ready-version/

Hi Broithe & thanks, I'm talking about the Northern Counties Committee NCC Loco, I suppose it is called Jinty,I have only known it as the NCC loco,

[Broithe]

That's it - just a cosmetic difference - pull the couplings off and remove the screws, then fiddle the body off - I've done it a few times, so it can't be too difficult...

 

 

It's very easy to put the couplings back on upside down.....

Can you be more specific? It's pretty much the same as asking how to remove the body on a CIÉ loco... there are several different kinds!

There are pictures on that link I supplied - it should become fairly obvious if I've guessed correctly.

Pssst gentlemen, it's called a Y class (sorry) try looking in the Bachmann website for jinty instructions, that should tell you how you can take the body off

[Warbonnet]

Should be instructions in the box too. Bachmann instructions are quite good, very easy to read and self explanatory.

Thanks guys, now can you tell me is there a suitable oil or grease for locomotives as the loco in question is quite a bit noisy,

Hi all knowledgeables out there, as you may see I never did get an answer to the above question, so I'm asking again, as I'm in the process of attempting to do a little servicing on some of my "older" loco stock, just in case !!!!
