<p> </p> <p>I emailed both the parts and service department for information on disassembly. Parts department told me I would have to contact a service tech (expected). The service department manager sent me a link to the exploded parts diagram.....[banghead], which I had stated in my initial email was not helpful. She also sent me info on how to send it in for waranty repairs. </p> <p>I found the 2 clips on the back of the tender that are holding the shell on. Does anyone know what is holding front in place? </p> <p>I also determined that not all of the feeders on the turnout ladder are currently connected, but power is being fed via soldered rail joiners and wires that short same side rails together, per the Peco recommendations. Addtionally the 4-4-0 Spectrum locomotive runs smoothly across the turnout ladder, convincing me that there is a problem with the locomotive or tender power pick up, not the track work. </p> <p> </p>
