Just for what it is worth, I have a CSX 7012 now some 20+ years old, took to squealing about 10 years ago. Drop of Conduct-a-lube on the motor shafts cured the problem. Still running today. Bob.

Damn, Bob.  I think your No. 7012 has been on your CSX roster longer than it was on the real CSX's roster.   :D
