So true, it's too bad I didn't discover that tip a few years prior.😁😁

Interesting options for track cleaning

[@blakrootz]

Thank you

[@DJTruthRider]

I use that block as well.

[@blakrootz]

So much easier. I prefer it.

Very Impressive! You are a true pioneer in outdoor HO scale train operations. Using the asphalt roofing for road bed is genius. How many linear feet is your outdoor section?

[@blakrootz]

The layout is constructed with about 13/14....12x20ft pressure treated boards. The entire outdoor shelving portion is 240 ft.

Can you push the cleaning cars in front of the engine/engines?

[@blakrootz]

Yes...sometimes I do that also.
