Dirty track, you say? Can't get to some of those areas, you say? Then here is your answer. Simmer down, all you collectors that don't run trains. This is not for you because it doesn't look like anything. It's a brass casting that pulls/pushes rollers around the track that gets the job done. Why someone hasn't done this before is beyond me. This is a very simple device. Follow the instructions by dropping some weight (I used a dollar's worth of change) into the roller, close the ends, saturate with your favorite track cleaning fluid and go for it.

I had a few minutes in between phone calls in April, so I took this down to the official OGR layout that hadn't been touched for two months. I put this on the front of my Lionel FM, saturated it with Hampton Hobby Products Track Cleaner and sent it on its way with 22 cars behind it. First time around (80' of track), not much showing. Second time, solid black. So I took a fresh roller and went around several more times. Boy, was it dirty. I used four rollers with the last one dry just to take some of the excess track cleaner off. There is a side benefit here! The wheels on the train were cleaned also. Now when I send out my trains, there is no sparking from dust or dirty wheels.

It would be hard for me to guess how this would work for you because there are a lot of variables that can occur in track cleaning. You can use almost any type of cleaner that is known to man from mineral spirits to 409. You may need only one roller or you may need many.
