This is a Japanese-made Balboa scale model. The original box shows little wear, and no spare parts are included. The model features excellent custom paint with some wear marks (check the photos).

Using this model is straightforward. Since it's an analog - DC only model, you'll need to connect it to a suitable DC power source to get it running. When starting, gradually increase the power to avoid sudden jolts. As for handling, always hold the model by its sturdier parts, like the body or the tender. The Kadee coupler on the tender can be used to attach it to other compatible train cars easily. In terms of maintenance, keep it in a dry and dust - free place when not in use. Periodically check the wheels for any signs of excessive wear. If you notice the model making more noise than usual, it might be time to clean the gearbox and replace the grease, just like it was done during the recent service. When shipping the model back (if needed), follow the same high - quality packing standards we use. And remember, if you have any questions about the model's operation or care, don't hesitate to contact us.
