Using your Los Angeles Railway Type M - 1 Streetcar is easy. First, make sure you have an appropriate analog - DC power source. Connect the streetcar to the power source and switch it on to start the spring belt drive. As it runs, you might notice a moderate motor noise, which is normal for this model. When handling the streetcar, be gentle as it's a fragile item. Since it has limited electrical pickup, ensure good contact with the power source for smooth operation. For maintenance, clean the wheels regularly to keep the minimal wheel wear in check. You can use a soft cloth to wipe off any dust or debris. Avoid exposing the unpainted brass body to moisture to prevent further tarnish. If you need to store the streetcar, keep it in the original box and foam for protection. And remember, if you're not satisfied with your purchase, you can take advantage of our 30 - day no - questions - asked money - back policy.
