While working on a 364 Log Loader; a friend mentioned that traction can be increased by placing a rubber band on the belt drive wheel. He couldn’t remember where he read that. There is always a bunch of broccoli in the fridge; and there is always a wide rubber band around the stalk. I found it to be a perfect fit for the 364.
So eat more broccoli and move more logs!

It also works on the log ramp. sometimes the red belt tends to slip, So the
rubber band helps. You should also put a drop of glues to hold the band
in place.
It was a guy who worked for Lionel years ago that told me about it..
I'd rather eat the rubber band.

I had heard that it could have that unwanted effect upon some people! 
I like broccoli, raw or cooked.

I use mine for miniature shrubs on the layout.

A rubber band as a shrub...now that's interesting! 
A good way to stretch your scenery budget.
broccoli gets a bum rap. 
Brocolli is an excellent vegatable with a benefit towards preservation of your vision. Nice to see its good for trains also.

Hahahaha, you said what I was thinking. I love most veges, but just can't cop broccoli.
