Hey all,
So I am working on my Skarloey Railway layout, and I made the mistake of running my Peter Sam model before the ballast glue dried. Now I think he got Scenic Cement in his wheels. I wiped them down with my track cleaning block and he started and then stopped, and then with a disinfecting wipe which got him to start but then stop again. What should I do?
And as the ballast glue dries on the whole layout, I'm worried that it will affect the operation of my trains. When I ballasted one section, both Skarloey and Peter Sam stopped altogether when the glue dried until I moved a track piece with a screwdriver, and that got it working again. I'm using Atlas track BTW.
UPDATE: I am not sure, but Peter Sam seems to have either a jammed gear or jammed wheel, as I just tested him again and he goes forward and backward but stops after going the same distance in either direction.
