Using this HO scale brass locomotive model is easy. Just connect it to an analog DC power source to get it running. Since it only has a front headlight, you'll have light in the front as it moves. When handling the model, be gentle because it's fragile, especially as it's made of brass. Also, be careful with the cast coupler on the locomotive pilot. For maintenance, you can use a soft, dry cloth to clean the model regularly. Check the wheels for any signs of excessive wear, but currently, the wheel wear is minimal. If you notice more tarnish on the tender, you can use a mild brass cleaner, but test it on a small, hidden area first. Store the model in the provided original box and replacement foam to keep it safe. And remember, if you're not satisfied with your purchase, you have a 30 - day no - questions - asked money - back policy, though you'll be responsible for return shipping unless the item arrives damaged.
