Feeling like a newbie operating that Athearn train

Okay this is for clarification. I have nickel silver rails, and the locos have steel wheels. I realize now that it was really dumb to clean the wheels with a file, and also to clean some parts of the track with fine sandpaper. It's just that the bright boy things don't seem very effective to me and they got all these grooves worn in them from the rails. So it looks like the way to go is the silver wheels for the locos, somehow resurfacing the rails I've sanded, and getting some of that hair clipper oil.
