Look for a product called MAAS metal polish. It is great stuff to to shine up the rails if they aren't really bad. A Brite boy is great to get years of oxidation off of the rails but MAAS really protect the rails for a while. <br /> <br />Look at these areas: <br /> <br />1.) Dirty wheels on Locomotives and rolling stock <br />2.) Over Lubrication....Oil attracts dirt <br />3.) Plastic wheels on rolling stock...rumoured to put an oily residue on the rails. <br />4.) I hate to ask but how clean is the area where your layout is? Is dust and dirt perhaps from construction landing on your layout. <br />5.) The best way to keep them clean is.....running trains the more the better [:D} <br /> <br />hope these things help. <br /> <br />DT <br /> <br />PS I found MAAS at Walmart. <br />
