Using this HOn3 Brass Northwest Short Line Logging model is easy. Just connect it to an analog - DC power source to get it running. But be aware, it runs very slowly and makes quite a bit of noise due to the all - brass gears. When handling it, be extra careful as the drivelines can fall out of place easily. For maintenance, check the solder repairs regularly to make sure they are holding up. Also, since the model has moderate tarnish and is unpainted, you can clean it gently with a soft cloth to keep it looking good. When storing, keep it in the original box with the bubble wrap and foam strips to protect it from damage.
