Hi, I'm new to this forum but have a simple solution for glue on the tracks. I am in the process of scenics and though very careful still manage to get drops of glue on the rails. I found a liquid that removes it within 30 seconds, no sanding no scratches. It's called De-Solv-it. I first applied it to a scrap piece of track to make sure it wouldn't melt the ties. I sprayed it wet and let it sit for 2 weeks and nothing happened. Just put a small amount on a piece of cloth and apply it to the gule on the track, wait about 20 seconds, wipe it clean, with a clean cloth and presto, all gone. And I am talking bout dried glue that's been on for a couple days. Any super market should carry the stuff, I found it a Wal Mart in the household cleaning stuff isle. Hopes this helps. Jim Bresett
