Just a couple of comments, I want to make. I realize most on the list are not 
railroaders, but I never heard a real life railroader (at least a M of W 
railroader) refer to a motor car as a "speeder" nor did I ever hear a push car 
called a "speeder trailer". Some may have but not to me. This is not anything 
in the way of a correction as we all know what you are talking about. It is 
just my observation as one who was around when there were a lot of motor cars 
in use. And before you say, that I used the term in BB #35, that was added by 
someone else.

Oiling track bars, etc. was a standard maintenance issue. The Fairmont Motor 
Company made/sold equipment for this task. Basically a tank mounted on a 
speeder trailer, pulled by a Fairmont speeder. Had a pump and wands for 
spraying oil. See attached photos. From the photos Bill shared, it appears the 
CB&Q just did it on a bigger scale.
