Using this caboose model is easy. You can simply place it on your model train track and let it add charm to your layout. When handling the caboose, be gentle as it's a delicate brass model. Avoid dropping it or applying too much force. For maintenance, keep it in a dry and clean place to prevent rusting. If it gets dirty, you can use a soft, dry cloth to gently wipe it. Don't use any harsh chemicals or abrasive materials as they may damage the paint or the decals. Also, when storing it, make sure to keep it in the original box with the foam to protect it from scratches and impacts.
