6 Tinplate 3245 Electric Locomotive
Periodically check the locomotive wheels and pickups for dirt and buildup, which can
cause poor electrical contact and traction. Wheels can be cleaned using denatured (not
rubbing) alcohol applied with a cotton swab.
To clean the track, use RailKing Track
Cleaning Fluid and a clean rag or
denatured (not rubbing) alcohol.
Unplug the transformer and wipe the
rails of the track, turning the rag
frequently to ensure that you are using
clean cloth on the rails. Thereafter,
keep an eye on the track and clean it
when it gets dirty to ensure good
electrical contact and to lengthen the
life of the tires.
The locomotive’s headlights are controlled by a constant voltage circuit in the engine.
The headlight is easy to remove and replace when it burns out. The bulb(s) simply
unscrew from their sockets. Replacement bulbs are available directly from the M.T.H.
Parts Department.
