cnrproducts, You never say what the $3.00 product is, I assume Maas, is this correct? When the track needs to be cleaned, I take two track cleaning wood blocks I made, which are just larger than the gauge of the track. Then I take blue shop towels cut to the width of the wood blocks and wrap them around the blocks. I wet one of these down with Goo Gone and rub the railheads of an approximate 3 foot section of track at a time. When dirty I rotate to a clean flat on the block. Then I wipe clean with the dry block. Always rotate to clean flats as a flat becomes dirty, otherwise all your doing is spreading the gunk around. In unreachable portions I rely on track cleaning cars. These cars are used in special trains when I want to do maintenance, or run in regular trains otherwise. I have not tried Flitz or Maas, but from what I've read this sounds like the way to go. Has anyone tried Flitz? Or, is Maas considered the better product? Mark
