Lionel 3927 usage?

[trains2353]

Does, or did anyone use there 3927 to clean their layout track? I have one that I'm getting to run again and when it does, I'm tempted to try it.

Thoughts?

Sure, that is what they are designed for.
I haven't run one in a while.
when I do, I use household spray cleaner, applied directly to the sponge.
Run it around a few times, then switch to some cotton wiping cylinders.
You are supposed to remove the sponge head, but the clips that hold it in place are easily damaged.

That's some of the parts I have to order.

I need to get mine ready to go. runs great, just need the bottles and the pad. 

[cwburfle]

The bottles are often missing. But you can use the car without them.

[trains2353]

The Train Tender has everything you and I need including repo solid bottles.

yeah Jeff is the man. there's just been too many other prijects ahead of 3927, but it;s inching its way up.

Jeff gave me a lot of help when I started up again. His parts are top shelf.
