Using this model train car is quite straightforward. Just connect it to your analog DC power source and watch it run smoothly on the tracks. When handling the car, be gentle as it's a delicate item. For maintenance, regularly check the wheels for any signs of excessive wear. If you notice the motor noise getting louder, it might be a good idea to clean the gearbox gently. Store the car in its original box when not in use to protect it from dust and damage. And remember, since it's unpainted and has some tarnish, don't try to polish it aggressively as it could affect the overall look. When shipping, we've packed it very carefully, but once you receive it, check for any damage during transit right away.
