Using your HO scale brass Shay geared locomotive is easy. Just connect it to an analog DC power source, and it's ready to run on your model railway track. When handling the locomotive, be gentle as it's a delicate brass model. Avoid dropping or knocking it against hard surfaces. For maintenance, keep it clean by using a soft, dry cloth to wipe away dust regularly. If you notice any excessive noise or a change in its running performance, it might be time to check the motor and gearbox. You can use a light lubricant on the moving parts, but be careful not to over - lubricate. When storing the locomotive, put it back in its original box with the foam padding to protect it. If you're shipping it, follow our bullet - proof packing guidelines to ensure it arrives safely at its destination.
