MR JAN 03. I use the MAAS metal paste cleaner, $3.50 at Walmart. I cut 6" long, 2" wide strips of old t-shirt 100% cotton material. Wrap it around a small block about the size of a brite boy. Fits good between the thumb & forefinger. Apply the cleaner to the lengthwise edge of the BB and drag across the top rail. Let slightly dry and with an untreated strip around the BB, wipe off. This way you don't get it all over where you don't want it.. I also use it on my loco wheels by flipping the engine over, connect a pair of power leads, throttle up and apply/wipe. I used this cleaning method on a 35 year old Lional HO steamer that was never cleaned and WOW! It need not be expensive to clean track/wheels
