Cleaning Lionel O Gauge O31 tubular Track
Cleaning Lionel O Gauge O31 tubular Track
I have just bought a case of 80 year old Lionel O Gauge O31 tubular Track on ebay for 99p. I am using it as a test track for my SM32 HGLW diesel Loco and carriages.
Example of SM32 using Lional O Guage (with middle rail removed):

The track is very grimy and a bit smelly, I wondered what I should use to clean it ?

No dishwasher unfortunately.
Wife says, how about WD40 and cotton wool ?

No, not running power through track, so like rugged look, but would like it less smelly, and less dirty too touch.
Mind you this is probably 80 year old track, so probably has 80 years of grime!
I am mainly using it as an indoor test track.
