Switching to dcc and running trains frequently helps to keep tracks clean. Have NS on my layout and haven't cleaned for three years. Cleaning wheels of cars and locos is a must as that is what spreads the dirt. Make a section of track off the layout that you can power and put engines on it with a piece of cloth that has Goo Gone on it. Run loco one set of wheels at a time to clean. Cars can also be run back and forth over this cloth. You wiil be amazed at the amount of dirt removed. You must clean track first once with a brightboy and then it will stay clean. Guys running on my layout,using thier own locos, comment on how well trains run. I always insist they clean thier wheels before running on my layout. cleanliness is next to godliness and god wanted our trains to run smooth
