Can a conventional loco (2-4-2 from a RTR set) be left in neutral for an extended period of time without damaging anything or creating a fire hazard?  I have a locomotive from the Lionel "Honda" ready to run set pulling a couple Polar Express cars on a small Christmas village layout and would like to leave it lit up and stationary.  Of course everything gets unplugged when we leave the house or go to bed, but is this a bad idea?

Thanks for any responses.
