Today I discovered a way to clean the 8 drive wheels on my 0-Scale 2-Rail GP-35 Diesel.
I had been troubled by its frequent stalls and occasional spurts for 1/4 inch when I try to push it ahead, so this time I set it on the track, and by holding it firmly and not letting it move, I applied full power from my controller and just let it sit and grind for up to 10 seconds, then let it go.
It then ran around my 130 feet of track without a stall anywhere!
