I have never done this, ever. And I have had no problems whatever.

Unless you let your kids take the track outside (Hi Chris...) this is not

Then your house must have little dust b/c thats what happens to mine. A layer

happens. I have a small paintbrush for my models. Its realtiy Larry, some
people have more dust in their house or other junk building on the rails.
