So So!
While this Tomix track cleaning car is a good attempt at an all around track cleaning car it falls a bit short. It is GREAT in vacuuming the track. However when the track cleaning disk is installed it takes either one very powerful loco or two average loco's to pull it around the track. So I just use it to vacuum the track.

Tomix and Atlas track cleaning cars
Both Atlas and Tomix cars are the same, just the names on the sides and colors are different, all parts and accessories are interchangeable. The FAN mode sucks up everything, I have had mine suck up plaster bits 3/16th inch in diameter, amazing for a fan so small. Dust and debris go into the "squirrel cage" and are easily removed. The wet pad mode works very well and has a circular scrubbing motion (inserts where the fan blades were), the only drawback is the tank does not hold much cleaner fluid and needs to be refilled about every 15 feet. I recommend getting TWO of them and running them in tandem, the fan car first, followed by the wet pad cleaning car (there is a dry pad option for very dirty tracks but I've never had to use that), doing it that way not only saves time but also a lot of fuss changing the pad/fan set ups. When you purchase the cars remember to get lots of pads and replacement heads, stuff eventually does wear out and parts may not be easy to find a few years from now, so stock up. This is my first review, I am well pleased with the performance of the products mentioned I give it a 10 out of 10 rating. In fact I like them so much I'm getting 2 more for my other track. Yep, I feel they are THAT good that I want more of them. Yes they are "pricey", and some people may not be able to afford getting 2 at the same time, but as with anything "you get what you pay for"..Lire l'avis complet...

Very useful MOW car
Good quality product, does a great job of cleaning the track. Works out of the box on analog systems (DC) however it needs a decoder installed for operation with DCC. It's easy to install a decoder and there are several available that fit will inside the shell. It is not self powered and requires a locomotive to pull it around the layout. Over all this is a great product and a must have addition to any layout.Lire l'avis complet...

A great tool for cleaning N scale track
I gave this 5 stars because I was having problems with my DCC engines running smoothly. Two trips around my layout with the polishing disk and my DCC engines ran perfectly. The vacuum gathered a lot of loose foam bits and dirt from around the track too..I found that both the polishing and vacuum features work well. It is easy to switch over from polishing to vacuuming. It is easy to empty the vacuum chamber.
There are a lot of tunnels and a hidden staging yard on my layout that I cannot get to easily without this cleaning car, and I would recommend it.
CAUTION: This product is designed for DC power out of the box. Do not run this with DCC power or you will burn up the motor. If you want to run it with DCC power you have to convert it to DCC.Lire l'avis complet...

Great product and results, WARNING not to use in DCC without converting.
Does a really nice job cleaning and vacuuming my track. Great for tunnels and hard to reach places. Easy to change between vacuum attachment and the abrasive disk.
WARNING: Do not use in DCC mode unless you convert to DCC. You will burn up the motor since DCC will feed it a constant 18-20 volts and it is not designed for more than about 8 volts.Lire l'avis complet...

Meets all of its promises
This is an even better product than I expected. The vacuum feature picks up things I did not even know were there. The track cleaning pads are amazing! I thought my track was clean until I looked at the used pad, it was black with the stuff that collects on the surface. My only criticism is that it took almost 5 weeks to get it here from Japan.Lire l'avis complet...

Versatile track cleaner
My second one-they do a wonderful job of cleaning track-especially good in places you can't reach to do with a handheld wand or eraser-type cleaner. With their optional "fan" attachment, it becomes a vacuum cleaner for the roadbed as well. Lire l'avis complet...

Very disappointed.
Didn't work once I received it. Instructions were in Japanese. Didn't have any idea what the different pads and wipers were for, had to figure it out for myself. I would not recommend at any price.
