BTW measured 11.4 ohms per coil. all gear train was smooth and so far Awesome Acetone worked as a solvent real well. Did a test area first.

    I believe track rubber works on old track, followed by a good rubbing of a piece of pine wood rubbed in hard, then a good vacuum, then your advice should work. Got to get the sins of past scratches out first. First fix the sins of the past. Also there are 99% ISP and methanol alcohol brands that work well - agree 70% alcohol is P00. 99% ISP works but can damage paint and by carbon atom count in the molecule, has a lot more carbon/black S*it than methanol. Oil based cleaners like Inox have a lot more carbon and the oil decreases traction if you want long trains or inclines. I have found Polished or new rails followed by a CMX track cleaner with 99% methanol every 6 months maximizes traction and electrical pickup and is 90% as good as slippery oil based conductors for electrical pickup on unadulterated track without any wheel slippage. ☺

  • @Alexander_Sth
    @Alexander_Sth 6 місяців тому

    Hi Anthony, great you done this project by yourself, that is respect. However I would like to share some critics. 1 I heard about construction benefits, but didn't about quality of driving, especially start moment with lowest speed possible 2 You do not tell us what is the excact minimal voltage, if 1-2V, it is not worth it, because some motors like classic HAG could start below, and coreless even from 0.1V. 3 Primitive old school construction does not contain potentiometer, it has Cu wire with brush, muuuuch better solution indeed. 4 Primitive is not the best, because 90% of locomotive need halfwave range to start really great like with DCC on board. Best old school late flagship controllers like Trix, Fleischmann, Titan, Duette, Piko has it. I'm not sure that this feature would take a lot of things... Sure it should be switchable as Duette. 5 Should have additional spring potentiometer (Vishay 100 Ohm or 1k Ohm) for lowering voltage to give more flexibility. Primitive idea was on the Duette. 6 Aha....((( Knob for train controller should be very very very big, like those which had sound amplifier from 90s. Imagine, you control locomotive and it should be as smooth as possible. Those small knobs like your or Gaugemaster suit only for brightness of some lamps "tune and forget". 7 You made the same mistake for direction control as famous British companies when plase it horizontal. It works if you have straight line, but bad with rounds. The best is vertical, because you would always know where you locomotive moves. Could write more, but that is the most important things...

    Hi Anthony, Need your help with a Fleischmann Alco FA unit. Ringfield and gears are fine, thanks to your tutelage with this video. It's missing the copper (brass) nub on the rear truck, which I am unsure makes a difference. It has trouble making a complete lap without nudging it, and for no reason the rear truck derails. I wish you had a personal email/Facebook page to message you with. Awaiting your answer. Thanks.

    Hello! Question? Why did you not use any grease on gears? Comment: You used Q-tips that kept leaving residue on everything; There are wonderful cotton swabs available on ebay that come with a longer wooden shaft and a head that is made for cleaning guns and other different shaped areas, and there are thin, thick, pointed, and other different shaped heads which are much better then the swabs you used. The cotton you used was very noticeable on camera leaving cotton strings numerous times! Your video was exactly right for me! Ted

    I'll try your CRC. But I've watched a lot of these track cleaning videos, and the consensus is that solid cleaners scratch the track and liquid cleaners act as a lubricant which reduced traction, so I've been using a dry lint-free microfiber cloth.
