Using your HO scale brass model train is easy. Just connect it to a compatible analog - DC power source and watch it run on your track. When handling the train, be gentle as it's a fragile item, especially with the brass parts. Since it has a few missing brake shoes, be extra careful when you need to stop the train. To keep it in good shape, clean it regularly. You can use a soft, dry cloth to wipe off dust. Periodically check the gearbox and, if needed, replace the grease as it was done before. Store the train in its original box and foam when not in use to protect it from scratches and damage. If you're shipping it, rely on our bullet - proof packing. And remember, if you're not satisfied, we're here to make it right within 30 days.
