My wheel cleaning. The towels have 3 coaches worth of gunk on them.
I use the Aero track cleaner and I like it. I'm now halfway down my bottle after about 10 years.
I've seem the Kadee and Hornby wheel brushes but never bought one. I usually just spin the loco wheels on a paper towel. And I like the CenterLine track cleaner.
Thanks, David. I've already done things like this, especially with my locos -- I run/spin their wheels on a paper towel to remove the gunk. It does work but seems time-consuming. I think a wheel cleaner -- such as the Kadee or Woodland Scenics ones -- would be faster & more efficient? I would probably keep using this (and similar) methods except that my Hornby Mallard (R2339) and 1-2 other locos, seem especially sensitive to dirt & picking up gunk, which is why I've started to consider other options.
