Servicing kit : PL-71

The servicing kit provides a cost-effective way to purchase the essential things that you require in order to service your model railway locomotives and rolling stock and keep them in tip-top working condition. The kit includes the following Peco products: Peco PL-40 Wheel Brush and Scraper, Peco PL-64 Power-lube liquid lubricant and cleaner, and Peco PL-70 Loco Servicing cradle. The cradle allows you to securely support your locomotive in an up-turned position, and the wheel brush and scraper will then allow you to apply power to driven wheels, cleaning them as they revolve. The Power-lube will promote smooth running and more reliable transfer of power to the motor or decoder. Further details of the contents can be found in the separate descriptions of the individual items.

Track rubber : PL-41

This useful tool should never be far from your layout! About the same size as a normal pencil rubber, but much less bendy, it performs an essential maintenance task, that of cleaning your track.

It is used in much the same way as a pencil rubber, but rather than erasing your writing mistakes, it removes dirt from your track. Simply place on your track flat side down, and rub backwards and forwards to effectively remove the dirt that stops your locomotives running reliably.

It is ideal for targeting those areas where dirt has built up. When there are structures or scenery close to the track you want to clean, use the rubber lengthways on the track. When there is more room at the side of the track, use it across the track so there is more leeway before you miss the rails!

Ideally, to complete the job, you should use a gentle vacuum cleaner to pick up any particles that the rubber may leave on the baseboard between the rails.
