Using this Walthers Mainline bulkhead flatcar is a breeze. Simply place it on your HO scale model train track and start loading it up with items like toy lumber, pipe, or other small objects to mimic real - world cargo. When handling the flatcar, be gentle as the detailed body and couplers can be delicate. Avoid dropping it or subjecting it to rough play. For maintenance, you can use a soft, dry cloth to dust the flatcar regularly. If there's more stubborn dirt, a mild soap and water solution can be used on non - electronic parts, but make sure to dry it thoroughly afterward. Keep the flatcar in a cool, dry place to prevent any rusting of the metal parts, especially the wheelsets and couplers.
