How to use it

For DC analogue models, place the locomotive on a powered track and use basic speed/direction control for operation. The GP40 is DCC-ready, meaning a compatible decoder can be installed for digital control if desired. Ensure track cleanliness for smooth operation and check coupling integrity before use. Always store the locomotive in a safe place to protect it from damage. Note that controllers, power packs, or track are not included unless explicitly stated.
