Questions & Answers

Could you please tell me if this is available ?

That does not make sense.

On what scale is it based?

A HO scale model would be appropriate. Choosing this vehicle if you want a cheap track cleaner is a wise decision. They come with low grade couplers on them, but changing them to Kadee couplers will make the car function much better. There are about 8 of these cars I own, and I use them on an extensive Here's hoping you found some answers to your questions.

Do you think this is an ?

I'm not sure what gauge it is.

Why are the pads getting pushed into the rails? There is a stoppage every time this happens. ?

My experience with the pads has not been problematic, and the wide pad has a better grip than the narrow pad. Since the HO track width is so wide, I have a hard time comprehending the issue. The pad looks like it might clean cars. Is it N gauge? One inch and sixteenth inches wide is my HO pad.

Surface dirt is kept off well with this product
5/5

You should not use this as your primary track cleaner, however, as this car does a great job at cleaning surface dirt. I am very impressed with the detailing of the vehicle. It is only the weight of the car that is a concern. If I run a consist (two or more powered locos running together) I can get my loco to pull up a hill, but I can't get it moving up the hill by itself or with just my tanker cleaning car. When I run a consist, I am able to move it along with six other cars and the tanker cleaning car up hills using less than half of the power of Unfortunately, I can't use a single loco at 100% power to pull the same configuration up the hill. Having this information just gives anyone a good idea of the weight of the car and its power output in the setup they choose for themselves. If I continue to pull it along with six other cars at slow speed, the same locomotive has no problem (on level surface). Such a large number of cars makes it impossible to ascend a hill. Furthermore, it has not derailed itself or any of the trains I have on track. In conclusion, I believe that everyone should give this a try.

I give this book three stars

For a dirty spot on track to be really cleaned, a few passes over it are necessary.

This is a good and functional design
4/5

An excellent piece of furniture for any layout, this car has high quality and functionality. In addition to providing the proper weight, this combination of surface abrasion and rolling characteristics has also produced a good balance.
