A quick layout run around with my new Broadway Limited Paragon 2 GE AC6000 CSX road number 634 and BLI number 2604.
I test out some of the sounds and run it around the main loop a little. Amazing loco, fantastic sound and really great detail, really well made, solid model. I picked this up from Hobby Emporium Inc, Tyngsboro, MA, which is a super store with great friendly staff and were really helpful. This was during my trip to the US and then later Canada earlier in the year.
Main Layout – Track Cleaning with CMX HO & Goo Gone and 2 Bachman Class 20 with DCC Sound
Just a short video showing how I clean the track. The CMX rubs the track gently with a cloth pad while it drips the Goo Gone onto it from the tank part of the wagon. This is by far the easiest way and the most effective way of cleaning the track, the Goo Gone really gets rid of all the dirt and makes for very smooth running. I never need to use track rubbers or anything else to clean it. This method also cleans the wheels of anything running on the track at the same time, simply have a dirty train following and the Goo Gone on the rails will clean the wheels. The next circit of the cleaning train will then pick up the dirt previously on the wheels off the track.
