When handling the flatcar, be gentle to avoid any damage to the fine - scale details. The die - cast metal frame is sturdy, but still, rough handling can cause scratches. For maintenance, use a soft, dry cloth to clean the body and wheels regularly. Check the couplers occasionally to make sure they are working properly. If you notice any loose parts, it's best to fix them right away to keep your flatcar in good condition.
