Using this HO scale locomotive model is straightforward. First, make sure you have an appropriate analog - DC power source. Connect the model to the power source and switch it on to start the locomotive running. Since it has a new NWSL gearbox, it should run smoothly. When handling the model, be gentle as it's a brass model and can be fragile. Avoid dropping it or applying excessive force. For maintenance, keep it in a dry and clean place to prevent further tarnish and corrosion. You can use a soft cloth to gently wipe the surface if it gets dirty. If you plan to paint it, make sure to clean the surface thoroughly first. And always refer to the power source's instructions to avoid overloading the motor.
