Guys,Dawn did the trick.Most of the Vaseline came off while it was soaking all I need to do is touch up with my cleaning brush and tooth picks in the corners. 
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Guys,I charge $4.00 fee just to inspect the loco and analyze the problem..If it is fixable I will them and if its not fixable then I will tell that has well..
Now as for a basket case train set locomotives I tell them up front it would be better to buy another unit if it needs more then a cleaning and tune up due to the cost of parts and labor.. Of course over the last 25 years I had a few customers to get irate when I told them that engine can't be fix.Most reply the train came with a life time warranty.I then suggest they send it the manufacturer for warranty repair..
My parts and labor is guarantee for 30 days and very seldom do I get a locomotive returned during that time frame.
