PIKO TRACK CLEANING WAGON 🧽

[@kolokowalsky772]

PIKO (peeko) is East German brand, (before West and East Germany united) in my time i Poland I had "H0" PIKO (largest), and "N "PIKO (small), also was "TT" PIKO (medium) track size.

@@IVERJUNCTION They were absolute perfect, detailes, with extra small priny on every car. The only toy-models trains with such quality in Eastern Europe countries at that time. They used 12V transformers, powered via tracks.

I have this track cleaning wagon. Admittedly I struggled to get to grips with it because model railways are still rather new to me and the trial and error that comes with it makes it hard to maintain. To be fair, Frome Parkway has been packed away for a while before we were able to get it built so that probably comes with it. Hope you're keeping well Danny.

[@IVERJUNCTION]

Thank you Daniel mate we are always learning all the time in this wonderful hobby always will be trial and error along the way on our model railway journey, it certainly is a fun way of your tracks, I'm all good here enjoying all the fun times on the layout making progress along the way, hope you are keeping well and enjoying the hobby, thank you as always for watching and commenting very much appreciated 😊😀 😃

Nice track cleaning wagon. Like your HST intro and outro. My intro and outro is my beloved Foxcote Manor. I'm a lady steam engine fanatic.

[@IVERJUNCTION]

Thank you Kelly I love steam too but mainly a GWR steam train fan as I live on the great western line and I go to Didcot railway centre a lot 😀 I have the accurascale manor which I think is absolutely stunning I would love to hope that one day accurascale will release kings, castles and halls that would be awesome, thank you so much for watching and commenting very much appreciated kind regards Danny 😀 😊 😃

[@lord-al-2024]

They seem to work well Danny . And you get to run them in a rake of wagons . WIN WIN.

[@IVERJUNCTION]

Thank you AL mate it certainly is a fun way of cleaning your track a nice invention piko, thank you as always for watching and commenting very much appreciated 😊😀 😃

[@Ianshandle999]

Try this….when pad dirty clean the pad with the track rubber!

[@IVERJUNCTION]

Oh wow thank you Ian mate I will do this method thank you for this useful handy tip, thank you so much for watching and commenting very much appreciated kind regards Danny 😀 😊 😃

Hello, Danny.... Nice review of the car. Thiis is from Piko, but it is sublet to Gaugemaster, who apply the Network rail details. Most Continentals who own in, say it is good. A company called LUX make the Maserati or Jaguar of track-cleaning cars, but they are expensive! I do have some PIKO items, but my track and the vast majority of my stuff is from Märklin, including all my ICEs. Great video and cheers!

[@IVERJUNCTION]

Hi Anthony thank you for correcting me I do apologise I thought it was piko, from first impressions they seem like a good company couldn't fault the wagon and it certainly is a fun way of cleaning your track, hope you and Joyce are keeping well and all set for Christmas 🎄 not long now 😊 😀 😃

[@piccadillymodelrailways]

I think its a fun way to clean the track and it picks up an amount track 'dirt', so it does serve a purpose. Thinking it would be possible to make more pads, if you can cut a slither off of the larger track cleaning block, thick piece of plasticard, Bob is suddenly a good friend. Your choice clearly. Take care Danny and Merry Christmas just in case we don't chat till the new year.

[@IVERJUNCTION]

Thank you John and merry Christmas to you too mate, I will try that with the pads very handy and useful to know great tip, thank you as always for watching and commenting very much appreciated 😊 😀 😃

[@DaventryParkway]

Just looking into these as I’m installing OHLE and this can make it a bit awkward for cleaning so very handy video. Thank you.

[@IVERJUNCTION]

Thank you it is certainly a fun way of cleaning your track and with overheads being installed on your layout these cleaning wagons would be very handy indeed, thank you so much for watching and commenting very much appreciated kind regards Danny 😀 😊 😃

[@tomhoustonmodelrail-nk7eh]

Thanks Danny, a useful review, I've been looking at these wagons this morning

[@IVERJUNCTION]

Thank you Tom mate it is certainly a fun way of cleaning your tracks and no issues straight out of the box, thank you as always for watching and commenting very much appreciated hope you are keeping well 😀 😊😃

[@barryturner2916]

Be careful with the retaining screws Danny, I found after replacing the pad for the third time that one of the threads under the body started to strip and you can't use glue because in time you will need to undo the screws to replace the pad. Take care regards Barry.

[@IVERJUNCTION]

Thank you Barry for the helpful tip and advice regarding the screws very handy and useful to know, thank you as always for watching and commenting very much appreciated take care and speak soon all the very best, happy modelling 😊😀 😃

I have one, very good at cleaning, just need a powerful loco or two to move it around, and very fun as you say

[@IVERJUNCTION]

​@thedepot7416 thank you mate for watching and commenting very much appreciated, it is certainly a fun way of cleaning your tracks my cavalex class 56 did well pulling it then as that is one of my heaviest locos and what a beast it is, hope you are keeping well kind regards Danny 😊 😀 😃

[@breintonjunction791]

Hi Danny, I’ve got one of these don’t rate it much had to take the springs off because to much pressure cheers Al

[@IVERJUNCTION]

Thank you AL mate yeah I suppose it was intended to use as am easier and fun way of cleaning your track, I will still be using my track rubber for cleaning and probably will use the wagon occasionally, thank you as always for watching and commenting very much appreciated 😊😀 😃

[@StBlazeyModelWorld]

GReat video Danny and an honest review. I'm never sure about these automated track cleaning solutions but this one is worth a shout mate

[@IVERJUNCTION]

Thank you Roger my friend it certainly is a fun way of cleaning your track, thank you as always for watching and commenting very much appreciated 😊 😀 😃

[@bluebellcentralmodelrailwa4064]

Hi Danny I've got this in RTC livery. I wasn't impressed with vinyl decal & no actual wagon details. But yours does look great on your maintenance train. ATB mate, cheers Kevin 🧑‍🔧👍🤝

[@IVERJUNCTION]

Thank you kev mate yeah it's very plain and bland but a fun way of cleaning your track I suppose, thank you as always for watching and commenting very much appreciated 😊 😀 😃

[@going2thedogs]

Hi Danny, Be interested to see how you get on with this. Did you apply any ‘Track Magic’ to the pad?

[@IVERJUNCTION]

Hi mate no I didn't use the track magic but I do have some goo gone ready for when I eventually get the brass track cleaning wagon just waiting to get it at the right price as at the moment they are expensive for such a small track cleaning wagon, thank you as always for watching and commenting very much appreciated 😊 😀 😃

[@jetmec]

I have one of these, they are good, mine has a different livery. You will need a Heavey loco to pull it

[@IVERJUNCTION]

Thank you mate it certainly is a fun way of cleaning your track and I used my heavy colas class 56 for pulling this track cleaning wagon with no issues, thank you as always for watching and commenting very much appreciated 😊 😀 😃

[@Mousehole-Rail]

[@ChapelEndJunctionUK]

Got one last year , you need a heavy loco to pull it especially if there is any gradients . Certainly does a good job ...........Peter

[@IVERJUNCTION]

Thank you Peter mate that is handy to know, so glad I used my beast of a loco to pull it, my cavalex class 56 is probably up there as one of my heaviest along with my dapol 59 and class 66s, certainly a fun way of cleaning the tracks, thank you as always for watching and commenting very much appreciated kind regards Danny 😀 😊 😃
