Using this model train is quite straightforward. Just connect it to an analog DC power source and watch it go. But remember, it needs a track with a 36 - foot or greater radius for proper operation. When it comes to maintenance, since it has a moderate motor/gearbox noise, it's a good idea to check the motor and gears regularly. You can clean the wheels gently to reduce the moderate wheel wear. Also, because of the professional paint job, try to avoid rough handling to prevent more nicks and chips. When storing, keep it in the original box to protect it from dust and damage. If you have any issues with operation, don't hesitate to reach out as it was recently serviced, but things can happen over time.
