I am in need of a track cleaning car as there are locations which I can not get to on my layout.
What, in your opinion, is the best type of car available?
Thank you for your responses.

I got mine from North East Trains in Peabody Mass, it is ok for light cleaning but never like doing it by hand.
I'd have to say that one of the most effective, and the most expensive is probably the CMX-O Clean Machine. It does wet and dry cleaning. I've used one, but I don't own one.

Easy to make one for about $10, and it works well.

I have 3. Centerline, Northeast Trains and the CMX shown above. The CMX I believe works the best. It is also the most expensive. The pads are easy to change out. They come with a coudoury type fabric. Easily purchased at a Joanne's. Huge advantage over the Northeast. But not as easy as switching out the Centerline's roller. You are able to use a liquid type cleaner that dribbles into a trough from the tank. The dry trailing pad then wipes it clean.
