billyboy Posted June 1, 2015 Posted June 1, 2015 One of my locos was running like a pig, stopping for no reason, lights flickers for seemingly no good reason, I checked the wheels and they looked clean. I also was running my Class 37 which as per usual tore around the track at a rate of knots. I got out my fancy Peco wheel cleaning gizmo I was kindly given by an old model railroader. Hooked it up , watched the dirt fly, wheels that didn't look dirty were pure filth. Lesson learned there The train is rumbling around the track quite nicely with a freight load as I type. all is good again. Quote
