Using this HO scale brass ALCO model is easy. Just connect it to an analog DC power source and watch it run. But remember, it needs to be broken in first, so run it for a bit at a slow speed to get it in top shape. When it comes to storage, keep it in the original box to protect it from dust and damage. Since the box has been packed with bubble wrap, it's well - protected during shipping and storage. As for maintenance, check the handrails from time to time as they've had some solder repairs. If you notice any more issues with them, get them fixed right away. Also, be aware that the motor and gearbox make quite a bit of noise, but that's normal for this model. When you're done using it, turn off the power to save energy and extend the motor's life. And don't forget, if you're not happy with your purchase, you can return it within 30 days for a full refund, just pay the return shipping unless the item arrived damaged.
