The track is pretty tarnished. Wipe it down with a plastic safe solvent and everything will work better.
Thanks for posting, I love this old stuff!

They arent the same loco. The loco in sam's video is a mehano, the itty bitty chuggy boi is a playcraft.

Wow! That is amazing!! I have been waiting to get my old West layout back as I wanted to do a parody in HO of one of my favorite films of all time, "The Good, The Bad, and the Ugly." The production, known as a "spaghetti western," was filmed entirely in Italy, to save money. The train in the outset of the film, is clearly an Italian job, standing in for an American type.
