Using your Walthers HO scale boxcar is easy. Just place it on your model railroad tracks and it's ready to roll. You can connect it to other cars in your freight train using the Proto MAX(TM) metal knuckle couplers. When handling the boxcar, be gentle to avoid any damage to the delicate parts like the ladders and grab irons. For maintenance, you can use a soft, dry cloth to dust off the car regularly. If there's any dirt on the wheelsets, you can clean them carefully with a mild cleaner. Make sure to store your boxcar in a dry and cool place when not in use to prevent any warping or damage to the body. And since it's a limited - quantity item, take good care of it to keep it in great condition for years to come.
