Using this HO scale brass ALCO locomotive model is a breeze. First, make sure you're using an analog DC power source as it's designed for DC - only operation. Connect the power supply and watch it run. Since it has a Kadee coupler on the tender, you can easily attach it to other compatible train cars. When it comes to maintenance, keep an eye on the wheel wear. Even though it currently has minimal wear, regular inspection is a good idea. Every once in a while, check the motor and gearbox. If you notice the noise level increasing significantly, it might be time for another service like the one it just had, where the old gearbox grease was replaced and the drive tube was changed. When storing the model, keep it in the original box and foam to protect it from any accidental bumps or scratches. And remember, if you're shipping it back for a return, follow our packing guidelines to ensure it arrives safely. Also, use only the approved payment methods we've listed when making a purchase.
