I just got two new locomotives (4-6-0 and 4-4-0) and have questions about the loco to tender wire bundles. Both bundles have two pieces of loose shrink wrap(?) on them. What is the shrink wrap for? How do I run the wire bundles so they don't hang down and let the shrink wrap catch on switches, ties, etc. There must be a proper way to get the wires up out of trouble and sight.
Thanks from an old newbie. Been out of the hobby for 15 years, but getting back in with a new layout and new equipment.

You remove the shrink wrap, it's packing.
If you have excess wire hanging down, push some back inside the tender.
