Painting a CMX cleaning car
Author: SimpleMoMike

Thought I would share my attempt at painting and decaling a brass CMX cleaning car. Although it's not UP yellow, I am happy with the results. I have seen others who have painted them black, but I thought I would go for a work train look. Thanks for you looking.

yes, and those track cleaning cars work great. After a trip around my layout those pads come back
filthy and my rail is spotless

Beautiful work!!  My only concern would be what the contents might do to the paint scheme.  We use mineral spirits in ours at the club & that could be a problem with the paint job I would think.  We also use another track cleaning car called the Annihilator made by Aztec.  Does a good job as does the CMX car.
