Using this caboose is simple. You can place it at the end of your train set to complete the look. When handling it, be gentle as it's made of brass and can be a bit fragile. Keep it away from sharp objects to avoid scratches. For storage, put it back in the original box and foam to protect it. If you want to clean it, use a soft, dry cloth. Don't use any harsh chemicals as they might damage the paint. If you have any questions about the spare parts or decals, feel free to contact us. Enjoy your new caboose!
