    That's a great breakdown of the different plastic-compatible lubricants for model trains! You've accurately explained the pros and cons of each option, including the potential risks with Dexron III.

    Here are some additional thoughts you might want to consider adding:

    • Availability: You mentioned the difficulty of finding Labelle outside the US. Some alternative brands available internationally include Trix Spezialfett, Faller Spezial-Öl, and Bachmann Conduc-Lube.
    • Specific needs: Different parts of your model train require different types of lubrication. For example, light oil is better for axles, while grease is better for gears and bearings. You can check more at https://en.tradebearings.com
    • Application tips: Briefly mention best practices for applying lubricant, such as using small amounts and avoiding over-lubrication.
    • Testing: Recommend testing any new lubricant on a small, inconspicuous area of your model before applying it to all parts.
    I hope this provides some helpful suggestions for further enriching your informative response!
