Using this HO - scale Atlas EMD GP40 - 2 locomotive is a breeze. For DCC operation, it supports all DCC - programming modes and has flexible function key mapping. You can enjoy over 20 sound effects, from engine start - up to dynamic brakes. On an analog (DC) layout, the LokSound Select Dual - Mode decoder allows it to run, but remember the Atlas Quantum Engineer won't work with it. Also, don't try to couple it with a locomotive without DCC and sound on a DC layout. When it comes to maintenance, keep it clean. Wipe off dust regularly, especially from the radiator and fans. Check the couplers, handrails, and other small parts to make sure they're in good condition. Store it in a dry place to prevent any rust or damage.
