DCC Concepts DCB-DOWELL 4 Pairs of Baseboard Dowels

DCC Concepts DCB-DOWELL 4 Pairs of Baseboard Dowels

Axle hung track cleaning wipers. Designed to clip over the axle of an OO/HO-gauge wagon to wipe the track clean as the train moves. An easy method to continuously clean the track as your trains run.

Axle hung track cleaning wipers. Designed to clip over the axle of an N-gauge wagon to wipe the track clean as the train moves. An easy method to continuously clean the track as your trains run.

The PIKO Track Cleaning wagon has been given a British outline finished as a VAB sliding-wall van in BR Railfreight brown livery.
Fitted with NEM tension lock couplings, this vehicle can form part of a goods train, polishing dust from the rails as it is hauled around your layout.

This model features a finely moulded body/applied livery, profiled wheels and is supplied complete with a fitted track cleaning pad.

Isopropyl Alcohol (IPA) cleaning fluid for use as a degreasing agent with most mechanisms and electronic equipment including model railway and slot car tracks, pickups, mechanisms and model locomotive wheels.
Safe for use on most plastics, but caution should be exercised to avoid unnecessary contact with decorated (painted/decal) surfaces.

2 pairs of precision baseboard alignment dowels with built-in electrical contacts. Ideal for automatically connecting DCC power bus lines!
Hard alloy, heavily passivated for zero corrosion means very long life and the tolerances are so fine there is NO movement possible once they are installed. Electrical connections are gold plated to guarantee fault-free performance every time!

When constructing baseboards drill and fit alignment dowels before commencing track laying to ensure that track end joints are always correctly aligned.

An abrasive rubber block that is absolutely ideal for cleaning dirty or corroded rail surfaces. Great for Scalextric or slot car track too. Helps ensure good electrical contact.

Simply connect the wires from the brush and scraper directly to your layout power supply and apply them to the driving wheels, one on each side.

A new multi-gauge loco-lift design is being developed by Peco to replace the OO/HO-only SL-43. This single unit will hold a small steam locomotive or diesel shunting engine in OO or a mainline steam or diesel locomotive in N gauge.

The concept behind the new loco lift design is that it will be adjustable, suitable for N, OO-9, HOn3, HOm and OO/HO trains. The units will require some assembly, but being very easy to construct the modeller can set the gauge according to their needs. A basic single unit loco-lift, PT-60, will accommodate a small OO/HO locomotive such as an 0-6-0 shunter or tank engine, but adjusted for N scale a longer locomotive such as a Pacific type will fit very easily. A twin-unit PT-61, comprising two single units which are designed to be joined will be perfect for longer OO/HO locomotives, or even a short train when adjusted for N.

Track cleaning coach allowing a convenient and realistic means of cleaning the track by means of self adhesive strips on sprung blocks underneath the coach. For best operation the coach should be pushed around the track by an 0-6-0 locomotive, or larger.

A simple ramp unit which fits over OO/HO track. Guides moulded into the ramp ensure that the wheels are placed onto the rails.
Long enough for even the largest items of rolling stock the railer is ideal for getting trains onto the track quickly and reliably.

Pack of 4 track cleaning pads designed to be clipped over the axle of a coach or wagon to collect dust and dirt from the track as it travels around the layout.

The Speedi Driver Cleaner features dual brass wire brushes with power supply and is wide enough for use with locomotives up to O gauge and can be used with DC and DCC power.
The brushes quickly and simply spin the drivers, cleaning dirt from the wheels. This restores electrical pickup and eliminates erratic locomotive performance due to dirty wheel treads. Just clip brush leads any place on running rails or power source.

Track cleaning fluid for model railway and slot car tracks.

Formualted to disolve oil and grease deposits to improve electrical conductivity. Guards against rust and wear. Compatible with plastic, foam, acrylic and enamel paints. 

Super Sharp Shears are incredibly versatile, with even the more delicate 2? shear capable of cutting anything up to .015 steel, nickel silver and brass sheet, yet precise enough to cut fine paper and plastic. The cut is so precise on our 2? snips that they will also cut the etching ‘cusp’ cleanly from etched components with perfect results! All our shears are made with the best quality components and are totally guaranteed to do the job properly every time. They can be sharpened to new condition with a couple of passes of our incredibly easy to use cruciform sharpening tool too. Treat them with respect and they will last you for a lifetime of modelling.

Exclusively made for DCCconcepts. These super sharp cutters have a flat back for a perfect flush cut and have been hardened to the limits to stay sharp. They should be used with one jaw on the bottom of the rail so they cut vertically – doing this gives the cleanest and most stable cut and lessens stress on the tool, lengthening life. Use ONLY for nickel silver, brass or mild steel rail (Do not cut turnout actuators or track pins which will damage the super fine sharp jaws).

Pecos' new design wheel cleaning brush. Supplied with brush holder.

This pack contains one brush and needs to be used with another brush or a scraper. Ideal for changing from the older design brush to the new pen design.

A locomotive holder for OO, N and similar sized locomotives. Manufactured from foam the cradle holds the locomotive securely up-side-down without causing damage to body detail etc. allowing good access for wheel cleaning, oiling and other running gear servicing tasks.

Track cleaning fluid for model railway and slot car tracks.

Formualted to disolve oil and grease deposits to improve electrical conductivity. Guards against rust and wear. Compatible with plastic, foam, acrylic and enamel paints. 

Its not only HUGE (big enough for O gauge or double track in OO and more than 8x the cleaning area or other brands) it is also the very best manual track cleaner available by a country mile – the pure rubber means it can be simply washed clean AND that it will also tolerate solvents if needed. The use of Aluminium oxide instead of garnet means that unlike other cleaners, it polishes rather than scratches the rail, minimising the need for future cleaning. We like it like it is, but by all means cut it into several separate blocks if you wish.

The PIKO Track Cleaning wagon has been given a British outline finished as one of the high speed freight test and development vehicles operated by BRs Railway Technical Centre (RTC) to collect data on the characteristics of new goods wagons suspension system designs.
Fitted with NEM tension lock couplings, this vehicle can form part of a goods train, polishing dust from the rails as it is hauled around your layout.

This model features a finely moulded body/applied livery, profiled wheels and is supplied complete with a fitted track cleaning pad.

This useful new kit contains all the necessary components required for the maintenance of model locomotives. Included are the Pecolectrics servicing cradle, with separate infills (for when smaller scale models are handled), a bottle of Powerlube, and the new brush and scraper tools. These last two items have been redesigned, in a similar fashion to the recently reintroduced probe. The new easier-to-use brush and handy scraper tool, for cleaning and removing unwanted pieces of dirt and fluff from the mechanisms, both come included with separate hooks for hanging on a workbench. Although currently only available as part of this kit, these two new items will eventually be supplied separately.

These Pecolectrics products have been part of the modeller's repertoire for many years, and by packaging them together you can now offer this handy kit to modeller's who are looking for a convenient product to use for maintenance of their expensive models. The individual items will, of course, remain available separately, so can be replaced as and when needed.
