Using your HO scale brass model train is a fun experience. Just place it on a compatible track and enjoy watching it run. When handling the train, be gentle as it's a fragile item, especially since it's made of brass. Keep it away from rough surfaces to avoid scratches. For maintenance, you can use a soft, dry cloth to dust it regularly. If there's more stubborn dirt, a very mild brass cleaner can be used, but test it on a small, inconspicuous area first. Since the model is being sold as-is and has some missing parts like the underside door steps, don't expect it to be in perfect condition. When storing, place it back in the original box with the inserts to protect it from dust and damage. And remember, if you're not satisfied with your purchase, you have 30 days to get a refund, though you'll be responsible for return shipping unless the item arrived damaged.
