Using this 25' wood caboose model is easy. Just place it on your HO scale train track. You can enjoy the realistic look of the operating marker lights. When handling the model, be gentle as it's a fragile item. Keep it away from rough surfaces and sharp objects to avoid scratches. For storage, place it back in the original box and foam. This will help protect it from dust and damage. If you need to clean the model, use a soft, dry cloth. Don't use any harsh chemicals or solvents as they may damage the paint. Check the couplers regularly to make sure they are working properly. If you have any issues, feel free to contact us.
