Using this model train car is easy. Just place it on your model train track and couple it with other cars using the Kadee couplers. Since there's no lighting, you don't have to worry about any electrical connections. When handling the car, be careful as it's made of brass and can be a bit heavy and fragile. Also, keep in mind that one stirrup step is missing, so avoid putting too much pressure on that area. For maintenance, use a soft, dry cloth to gently clean the factory - painted surface. This will help remove any dust or dirt and keep the paint looking good. If you need to store the car, put it back in the original box. Make sure the box is in a dry and cool place to prevent any damage from humidity or temperature changes. And always handle it with care to avoid any more scuffs or chips.
