Might be a silly question to some of you. But im getting back into the hobby after 10ish years and need to service my locos. I was too young when i first had them. Is there any guide or advice that can be shared to help me out. Much appreciated

Depends on what loco - some of the motors need different types of servicing and oiling, although one of the easiest things to do is just run it round a circuit of track for half an hour to get things going again. Also cleaning of the traction wheels works wonders.

Some of the more specialist railway modelling forums will be able to help, such as RMWeb.
