Troubleshooting

Coaches do not couple correctly.

Ensure the couplers on both the coach and the existing train are properly aligned and fully engaged. Check for any debris or obstructions in the coupler mechanism.

Wheels are not rolling smoothly.

Inspect the wheels and axles for any visible damage or obstructions. Gently clean the wheel flanges and track if necessary. If a specific coach is problematic, it may require inspection for internal issues.

Model appears dirty or dusty upon arrival.

Carefully clean the model using a soft, dry brush or a clean microfiber cloth. Avoid applying excessive pressure.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

This set consists of intermediate coaches and is designed to be added to an existing Rivarossi Cisalpino ETR 470 powered train. Simply unbox the coaches and carefully couple them to the rear of your powered ETR 470 unit or other intermediate coaches using the provided couplers. Ensure a secure connection for smooth operation.

Compatibility:

  • Gauge: This set is manufactured for HO gauge model railways. It is designed to be compatible with standard HO scale track systems and rolling stock.
  • Base Train: It is specifically intended as an expansion for the Rivarossi Cisalpino ETR 470 model. While other HO gauge couplers may fit, optimal compatibility and appearance are achieved with the matching Rivarossi train.

Care:

  • Cleaning: Dust regularly with a soft, dry brush or microfiber cloth. For more stubborn marks, use a slightly damp cloth, ensuring no moisture enters the internal mechanisms. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
  • Handling: Handle models by the body or roof to avoid damaging delicate details like mirrors, antennas, or pantographs. Store in its original packaging when not in use to protect from dust and damage.
