do not forget to sterilize washing machine after - no joke.
Also from my experience the best result for big plates can be achieved by hands with the help of soft toothbrush.

I never used to use washing machine for lego so can not advise on the matter.
But I have been doing lego washing by hands - so I strongly recommend after you washed your bricks before you put them to dry give a good rinse with distilled water. I mean really good.
White stains because of hard water after drying is a big pain once they are there.
Distilled water helps to avoid it.

Hallo!
Long time no updates.
But finally I managed to find a good new motor of proper type.
Tested and runs better than the old one.
Also sourced missing wheels.
Restoration continues.

Thank you for the news! Tough its pretty sad
-
Heard the same date rumors. Was wandering if I am the only one.

Dear colleagues!
Is it already known when these special AFOL days will be?
-
Well - as they said in Lego store Koln - we CAN NOT use plastic cups anymore.
Only return it to receive 75 cents deposit.
-
For I will keep it. I have another 5 in normal color.
Nice collection setup

Cactus Bascharage - No minifigures
Cactus Bettembourg - yes, but also one box, big codes so apps working
-
I am surely not going to give mine away ))
Wonder how long it will be possible to use it. Boxes are great for bricks but for 1x1's I prefer cups
-
I have heard that those are officially retired in all stores worldwide starting from today.
I my opinion it was better idea for reuse/recycling especially with 75 cents discount for using your own cup.

Can not upload video but it's running nice.
Missing 4 wheels, few brick on carriages and need new stickers.
But signals works and track in almost new condition.
Probably I will replace motor because contacts one this one is totally loose.

This is very strange. There were rumors that after epic fail with new packaging chain store refused to consign new cmf. Looks like it is not a rumors anymore
-
So - good news for me.
Battery box is totally fine (need some additional cleaning but otherwise ok) and provides 4.5 volts on output.
Problem was in schtecker contact on motor itself - too much dirt inside. But with the help of spray contacts cleaner this was removed.
Now my 182 is running - next step I will take of stickers.
PS - will post video a bit later.

Thank you.
I will see my friend who is microelectronics engineer this weekend. He promised to take a look at my stuff.
Hope it will help.
I will keep posting here.
