Lubericating a P2K GP38-2?

I need to clean and lube the gears and pick-ups on my P2Ks. How do I go about doing this? Do I need to remove the shell or do the trucks come apart? I did my Bachmanns this afternoon and I need to get the Geeps next. Any advice? Thanks, Mike

The trucks come apart. Check out this thread and you will find some pics on how a Proto GP38-2 truck comes apart.

Thanks TA for the response, I was looking for that thread yesterday and couldn’t find it. I think that is exactly what I wanted, I will see if I can get the trucks apart later. Mike

No problem, they are a little difficult to pop off but they will with a little prying.
