Using this HO brass model is simple. Just place it on your model train track and let it run. It has Kadee couplers on both ends, so it's easy to connect to other train cars. When handling the model, be gentle as it's a fragile item. Avoid dropping or applying too much pressure. For maintenance, keep it in a dry place to prevent rust. You can use a soft, dry cloth to clean the exterior. If you want to display it, the original box and foam provide great protection. Remember, it has been drilled for diaphragm installation but diaphragms are not included. If you plan to add them later, make sure to do it carefully. And since it's a custom - finished model, take extra care not to damage the decals and paint stripes.
