Anything to use other than contact cleaner?  I'll pick some up at Radio Shack tomorrow but is there anything I can use right now to get this thing working better?

Also, if the track is dirty, does it make sense that it only bogs down on once section?  Literally, it runs fine all around the track except for one piece of track.. it almost looks like that piece is somehow broken...

It's brand new, just took it out of the box on saturday.  Surely it isn't that dirty, already, is it? It's on one piece of the track.  I crimped the connectors so that they'd fit a bit tighter but it's stilll bogging down...

New to the board and already have a question...

Just bought a new "Rail King" HO set and put it together under the tree.  Unit ran fine for the first day but now it's bogging down, considerably, in one corner of the track.  I've check to make sure I have good track connnections and everything looks and feels fine.  Any thoughts on what the problem could be?

Thanks!
