Thank you for purchasing this new Baldwin VO1000 Diesel 

locomotive.   Our 1/4" scale reproductions are highly detailed and designed 

for years of operation on your O Scale pike.   Weaver locomotives are 

completely compatible with most other O Scale engines, rolling stock, and 

accessories.   Please note that this manual is for a variety of Weaver diesel 

locomotives.   Refer to this manual for information about all Weaver Baldwin 

VO1000 locomotives.

All Weaver diesel locomotives are tested and greased before 

leaving the factory and are ready-to-run on your layout.

Maintaining Your Engine:

As with all our Weaver engines, this locomotive is designed so that 

very little maintenance is required from the owner.   It is recommended that 

all moving parts (idler gears and axles) be oiled after 25 hours of operation.   

The locomotive is comprised of two precision can motors and two drive 

trucks whose outside idler gears should be lubricated with household oil to 

prevent squeaks and enhance performance.   A drop or two of oil on gears
