@Don McErlean It is just as Fred says with the cab levers , nothing to worry about and very straight forward .. the underneath levers are track based and allow hands off braking or reversing , this is done with a special track section that has two activation tabs inbuilt . One for brake the other for reversing.

There is also the more basic one that only did braking , and of course only had one lever/tab unit .

Wind up and have a play.... best way to learn !

Dont be too scared of winding up , you will feel increased tightness towards the end of the wind that lets you know you are getting close to the end , start out low and increase your winds as you feel comfortable ... a little oil on the moving parts will never go astray and help with friction , just dont have it dripping ! LOL!

After not being used a for possibly many years , it might take some patience but the more its run and cleaned/maintained the better its performance will be , there might be a break in period while things loosen up again

Fred ... I think Don like to imagine us all huddled around the monitor with our heads resting on our shoulders trying to see his pics

He is evil that man , evil I tells ye!
