Using this Walthers HO scale boxcar is easy. You can simply place it on your model train track and connect it to other cars in your train set using the Proto MAX(TM) metal knuckle couplers. When handling the boxcar, be gentle to avoid damaging the delicate parts like the wood running board and the wheelsets. For maintenance, you can use a soft brush to clean the dust off the boxcar regularly. Keep it in a dry and cool place to prevent any damage to the materials. If you need to move the boxcar for storage, hold it by the sturdier parts like the body to avoid breaking the smaller components.
