Bob, I use a tiny tiny tiny tiny bit of Automatic Transmission fluid on my track. I spread it about 2 inches on each rail and let the cars and locomotives spread it. I only have had to do it twice this year and that is after some track work. I don't have stalls or sparks. It doesn't take much, what is left in a quart bottle after adding to a car would be enough to last years. However, if you are getting a spark from a short that's a different story.
