Using this model train is easy. Just connect it to an analog DC power source and watch it go. When operating, make sure the power connection is secure. For maintenance, keep it in a dry and clean place. Every once in a while, check the gearbox and clean it if needed. You can use a soft brush to remove any dust. If there's any sign of wear on the wheels, like the brass showing through the plating, just monitor it. If it gets worse, you can use the spare parts that come with the model.
