Wouldn't that get pretty gummy in cold weather? I thought the usual
recommendation for that kind of mechanism was light sewing machine oil,
or Labelle 105/106, which is available at any good model train store.

Is reference to clock oil
WD-40 would be a poor clock oil. It evaporates in a short period of
time.
It's main quality is moisture absorption. I have been using Mobil 1
transmission oil. It seems to work well and a quart can oils a lot of
clocks.
