Using this HO scale brass tender is straightforward. You can place it on your model railway track and pair it with a compatible locomotive. When handling the tender, be gentle as it's a fragile item. To keep it in good condition, store it in a dry place away from direct sunlight and moisture. If you notice any dust, use a soft, dry cloth to gently wipe it clean. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive materials as they can damage the brass finish. When shipping, rest assured that we pack it securely to prevent any damage during transit. If you're not satisfied with your purchase, let us know within 30 days, and we'll work to make it right.
