Title: Track Guard is Back..!!
Post by: guslcp on October 04, 2007, 10:18:26 PM
Hi folks....Summer is over so it's back to train-things once again.  Hope you all had a great summer..I did...Got to see a grand daughter come into this world..!!  Nothing less than a miracle..!!  For those of you that are grandpas, you know the feeling...Those that haven't made it yet...you don't know what you're missing..!!

Well, it's time to get those trains dusted off & running.  Here's this little beauty to help you in the once-ugly task of keeping track clean.  It's listed on eBay...

The current listing ends Saturday 11:00 PM CDT. Check it out...

Is there something "special" about this item that makes it stand out against the other track cleaners?

Hi...I think so...(and apparently several hundred other users as well).  It is easy to install, unobtrusive, and can be mounted on almost any existing car in your roster.  You don't need a "special" car that is totally out of scale and stands out like a sore thumb (and that can cost upwards of $20+).  Plus...being relatively unexpensive, you can have several cars outfitted and have them running, keeping your track clean.  If you checked out the item and the feedback comments you can see that loads of people think it's great..!!

Has anyone here used this item?

Seems too good to be true, no fluids, no mess, no work.

I seem to remember a lot of people on the board saying that the track guard was pretty good...

RE: Track Guard ... 

first - I am not being paid for this comment :)

second - they work fine on my layout (8 x 19) however, I have never tried any other kind of track cleaner except for hand rubbing with a cloth and alcohol.

I am satisfied with the way they clean.

to drhorn,
If you don't like cleaning track before running your trains, you will find that these work very great. 
I have two of these track guards.
I only clean my track once a month just to make sure every thing works good. 
I plan on getting a few more.
I would say try it I think you will like it.
