Forward

Thank you for purchasing a Hercules locomotive.

I have written these notes so hopefully you will have safe and trouble free running.

Suggestions like “make sure the nuts are on the bogies before lifting the chassis” is not just waffle.

I know from experience because if they aren’t on and you lift the chassis the bogies drop off and

on to your foot (wh

ich is why I wear toe cap boots). Now you know I hope you won’t make that

mistake.

If you are unsure of any advice given in this leaflet please get in touch with Ride on Railways.

Similarly if you feel we have left anything out then please let us know.

Happy running
