3 A brace is two, so 2 x 2
Question Author
But that's only one clue. Aren't there 'supposed' to be two ways of getting it?
You can make gravy with oxo and cornflour - oxo is a brand

A brace means two (eg a brace of partridge) so two brace is four
A pair of braces equals 4

And the "train" bit?

OK, so it's just a single clue - unusual, but Tim Moorey does sometimes do unusual stuff.
Sometimes clues are 'not further defined' so there are not always two ways.
