Using this model train is easy. Just connect it to a compatible DC power source and watch it run on your track. Make sure to handle it gently as it's a delicate brass model. When not in use, store it in the original box to protect it from dust and damage. Check the wheels regularly for any signs of wear. If you notice any issues with the motor or its operation, don't try to fix it yourself. Instead, contact a professional model train repair service.
