Using this model is straightforward. Just connect it to an analog DC power source and it's ready to run. However, since it has a slight hesitation per revolution, don't expect super - smooth operation all the time. When handling the model, be careful as it's missing a tender stirrup and a steam line connection near the tender coupler. For maintenance, keep an eye on the wheel wear, which is currently minimal. If you notice the motor/gearbox noise getting louder, it might be time to check the lubrication. Remember, the model was recently serviced, but over time, you may need to remove old grease and re - lubricate the gearbox. Store the model in its original box and foam to protect it from damage. If you're shipping it, make sure to use proper packing to avoid any additional harm. Also, if you're not satisfied with your purchase, you have a 30 - day no - questions - asked money - back policy, but you'll be responsible for return shipping unless the item arrives damaged.
