Using your Otter Valley N Scale Scrap and Trash Gondola is easy. You can place it on your model train track and couple it with other cars to create a realistic train. Whether you're making a unit train or a manifest train, this gondola will fit right in. When handling the model, be gentle. The separately applied ladders and other small details can be easily damaged. Avoid dropping the gondola or hitting it against hard surfaces. To keep your gondola in great shape, clean it regularly. You can use a soft, dry cloth to dust it off. If there are stubborn dirt spots, you can use a mild cleaning solution and a soft brush, but make sure to dry it thoroughly afterwards. Store the gondola in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the paint and lettering from fading.
