[Accrs] Club Lock problems

[Alameda County Central Railroad Society]

Hey guys.  Has anyone tried simply lubricating the locks as they are in fowl weather all the time? Graphite lube works wonders.

Going that route, we'll all be dead before we spend as much as the other locks will cost.  BTW, Dean and I were there working on the layout Wednesday morning.  We left around 1:00 and I locked the door.  It took several tries with everything set on zeros, to get it to hold.  I gave it a couple good pulls and left.  I think it's better to get it to hold and then spin a couple of the wheels off of the position when locked.   I didn't do that when I left.  Let's get a couple new locks of the same type.  That's my vote.
