Labelle 107: Drive shafts, Motor shafts & Armature shaft.
Labelle 106: Gear's
That's what I do with my Blue Box locos they run like clockwork

I use label 107 for the pillow blocks in the gearing, but I actually use a synthetic silicone grease for the gearing. It's called super lube. Here is a link to the stuff:
