PWSlack Posted August 18, 2010 Share Posted August 18, 2010 "Lubricator", not "oiler"! The fluid is usually a graphite-loaded grease. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Southernman46 Posted August 18, 2010 Share Posted August 18, 2010 The main two companies used by NR are QHi and Portec - their websites will have some data on the various lubricators & grease. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ozzyo Posted September 10, 2010 Share Posted September 10, 2010 Hello all, at Carnforth station on the Barrow line platform there is a flange greaser that applies grease to the outer running rail and to the inside of the check rail. I'm not sure if this is the case on the Lancaster platform line as well. OzzyO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PWSlack Posted September 15, 2010 Share Posted September 15, 2010 Another example, this one on the line to Derby at Water Orton where there is a speed limit of 90mph. Cheers Dave Look how the ballast is blacker in advance of the lubricator on the application side! Out with the airbrush! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
