Using this O scale model is simple. Just take it out of the box carefully. You can display it on a model train layout or use it as a collectible. When handling, be gentle as it's a brass model and can be fragile. For maintenance, you can use a soft, dry cloth to wipe off any dust. Avoid using harsh chemicals as they may damage the finish. Keep it in a dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent tarnishing. If you need to store it, put it back in the original box and foam for protection.
