I am having problems with wheel slip on my steam locomotives.At first I thought it was just a certain locomotive.But when put another locomotive it started doing the same thing.So I stopped and cleaned the track.Still slipping I am gonna have to clean the locomotives wheels.And clean the track with some thing that will get cut the grease/dirt up.I have tried denatured alcohol.But it looks like I need some else.Any helpful tips I will be very greatful.

I use 99% Isopropyl Alcohol, and I've never seen wheel slip with traction tires, that's pretty unusual.
