You can clean everything, including the rails, wheels and axles with a ScotchBrite pad to get off surface dirt and rust. Then go over everything with a rag soaked in Naphtha to clean off all the gunk.

Do NOT ever use steel wool, as it sheds and can cause untraceable shorts, as well as get picked up inside of magnetized trucks and motors.
