Food for thought..
1.Brass track needs more cleaning then NS..
Perhaps
But,
Why all the topics on cleaning track if NS track stays cleaner?
Why is there a need to use chemicals(Gleam,90% Alcohol WD40 etc) to keep it clean longer?
:?: :?: :?: :?:
I suspect a lot of "drity track" problems arent from oxidation, but from 1) dust and lint [if my furniture gets dusty in a week, shouldn't my rails shoud accumulate the same dust?]; 2) oil and grease from locomotives; 3) plastic particles wearing off of plastic wheelsets.
One is going to have to clean rails regardless, whether brass or NS.
