Very nice and the video as well. Also congrats on the ORG article very nice. Hope to meet you in person at the club meeting.

I got a new Linoel tank car domino sugar. I also have the Linoel Nation #4 video coming next week.

Well, the secretary splurged and got me the CMX Clean Machine Track Cleaning Car. Seems she must have taken Bill to his word about it being the best hands down. I have run it now twice on the whole layout. Track is sparkling clean.

Now if only someone could come up with a device maybe called "Wheel Cleaning Track" then I would not have the task of cleaning the wheels on all of those cars.

Nice car. I did not know of this cleaning car so I had to Google it and WOW that is some car. I learn something every day. Question do you use any fluids with it and if so dose it go in the tank?
Yes a wheel cleaning would be nice as well.

Wyatt,

There are several fluids that you can use. I have been using Bestine, a thinner and solvent found in art supplies. You have to be careful, it is quite flammable. I make sure that I use it behind an engine that shows no signs of sparking. It has been all that it is suppose to be so far.

That is really a nice car and I will have to look into that liquid you are using. I have a track cleaning car with rollers and use Goo Gone on them but have to watch out with traction tires sometimes will make them stretch out and then they are no good. But once again a really nice Christmas present. :)
