BACHMANN HO (Like Grandmas Cookies) TRAIN SET Better Then NEW-cleaned Track

Description: BACHMAN HO TRAIN SET (READY TO RUN) - similar to the “GRANDMA’S COOKIES) SET” shown in last photo ***SET 4**** BUT: 1) there is no outer big box, shipped in a smaller regular cardboard box 2) I have included 2 extra straight tracks so u can have a bigger oval! ALL TESTED! Better Then NEW - SPECIAL attention to track condition. (Read below) ————————— You’re better off purchasing this set than a brand new set. A new set’s track has set around in the box, unsealed and the air gets to it and it gets a layer of oxidation on the surface. That means when you put your brand new train on your brand new track it may not run properly, it may even stop. It may not get enough power to start from a dead stop on the whole track because the rail joiners and areas they touch, may also have a microscopic amount of corrosion. Cars that are new in the box like mine sometimes have coupler damage from rough handling. I have verified all the couplers function properly. Automatically couple when u back the train up slowly to each car. I HAVE TAKEN ALL THE TRACK SECTIONS AND TAKEN THE ELECTRICAL RAIL JOINTERS OFF, SOAKED THEM IN SPECIAL CHEMICALS TO MAKE THEM CLEAN AS NEW AND LUBRICATED THEM WITH SPECIAL CHEMICALS SO THEY WILL MAKE A BETTER AND LONGER LASTING CONTACT THEN NEW ONES. THE FEW CONNECTORS THAT DID NOT LOOK GOOD, OR TEST GOOD, I REPLACED WITH NEW ONES. I HAVE ASSEMBLED THIS WHOLE 14 PIECE TRACK AND CLEANED IT WITH THE TECHNIQUES FOUND ON MANY PROFESSIONAL TRAIN OPERATORS’S VIDEOS BY: 1) Sanding the whole track WITH VERY FINE SANDPAPER (400, then 600 grit) to remove any oxidation present. ———-I will include the 400 and 600 grit blocks for u to clean the tracks again in the future. (THE WASHER BLOCK, CAN OF CLEANER AND THE RAG SHOWN ARE NOT INCLUDED) 2) Rubbed the whole track with a stainless steel washer to heal any of the scratches that were created in step one. (This is called healing) 3) Cleaned all of the debris off of the track using a chemical that cleans and protects the metal. 4) cleaned and protected the railroad ties (best way to adhere ur track to the layout is with household caulking - do not use nails, u will most likely mess up the track, and break the ties. Wipe the bottom of the track off with isopropyl alcohol or equivalent before glueing down to remove my protective chemicals). 4) Ran the train a few laps around the track to verify that it can be stopped and started on each of the 14 segments, and that it runs smoothly and does not have hesitations. I have also given special attention to the locomotive: 1) Lubricated all wheel axles on the locomotive and 2) cleaned all the eight wheels on the locomotive. 3) Verified it ran smoothly on the whole track with a dozen start/stops 4) Verified the headlight works 5) Cleaned any “shelf dust” off and waxed it 6) Cleaned the 4 contacts that receive power from the wheels I have also cleaned all 4 cars. I have also Tested the original throttle controller. I have hooked up the red cable to run the whole train for testing. It all operates perfectly. Set includes: Locomotive with headlight Open Quad Hopper GRANDMAS COOKIES BOX CAR 3 DOME TANKER Wide-vision Caboose 36” Oval (has 2 straight tracks) 11 pieces of curved track 1 piece of curved track with cord connector 2 pieces of straight track Bag of signs (unopened) Bag of telephone poles (unopened) Power pack and speed controller with red cable to track Copy of the instructions included I have placed the track in a sealed zip-lock bag so it won’t get corroded during shipping, it might be raining somewhere on the shipping route, or time spent before u use it (makes perfect Christmas present!) This set has the standard Couplers NO OUTER BIG BOX
