    Hi
    I have just brought a new track cleaner, it plugs into the controller.Once you have plugged it in it just burns the dirt away (easy)

    [​IMG] Next time the grand children are over & it is out, I will take a pic of their track lay-out, with all it's tunnels, mountains & buildings etc.. Unfortunately it cannot stay set up all the time as it takes up so much space, the board lives on end, behind a huge wardrobe the rest of the time..... :D I will try to do it soon............ :D

    Paul has been taking lots of pics lately, as he's decided to go to N gauge and will be selling his 00 stuff. I'm glad, as the layout takes up all the garage! I prefer the look of N gauge too, seem to be able to pack so much more into a smaller space. He was looking at layouts on the laptop in bed last night (yes, he does prefer his trains!!),I'll ask him for the web address. He's planning on doing an industrial scene. Sad, but quite exdceited at the prospect myself!!
