Using this HO brass model is straightforward. First, make sure the Digitrax decoder is properly set to address 2000. Then, connect it to your DCC system and start operating. You'll notice it runs smoothly, though there might be a bit of minor motor/gearbox noise. When handling the model, be gentle as it's a fragile brass item. Avoid dropping or applying excessive force. Since the box has minimal wear and the foam has been replaced with bubble wrap, it's well - protected during shipping, but still be careful when unpacking. For maintenance, regularly check the wheels for the moderate wear and mild plating wear. You can use a soft brush to clean the wheels and other parts gently.
