Not really 
We have about 10 to 30 derailments a day. Usually, a train is re-railed within 5 minutes by the operators and the visitor normally doesn't even notice that something went "off the line" 
The complete layout is monitored by 360 degree rotating cameras and the operators always can see what happens. Another kind of "real time" supervising

Wonderland and track cleaning...is the opinion then the best way to clean is use the vac and cleaning pad, no liquid? I have just run my Dapol on vacume round the track a couple of times, and only did it last week , and I bet I could have filled a tablespoon with the ballast and dust. Where does it come from? is the hot weather loosening the ballast?

Hi Dave if the ballast was soaked with glue mix when you did it it shouldnt come loose easily ....... unless it missed it last week while you where setting up the cleaner. | ||

I gave it a really good clean last week, but as i said still lifting it with the Dapol, but of course now its running on full in consist, its finding more. its the old ballast Nick and I have not put new down yet with the new mix of meths pva @ water. |
