It has incredible low and high-temperature characteristics which is absolutely necessary for proper train lubrication but completely lacking in petroleum-based oils. Don't use them on your trains any longer! Actual oils leave sticky deposits when the short-chain molecule components evaporate over time. Real oil is made up of a mixture of long and short chains of carbon and hydrogen atoms and under certain conditions the short-chain molecules evaporate and the unstable molecules oxidize and break down. This leaves a sticky residue which can actually "gum up" the device it was intending to lubricate. Conventional oils also contain varying amounts of impurities such as sulfur waxes and unstable hydrocarbons which are left behind as residue deposits. In contrast synthetic oils are made using a process that re-arranges the structure so all the molecules are uniform in size shape and weight an ideal phenomenon which does n
