I bought a Bachmann Spectrum Russian Decapod the other day and I want to get the boiler off the chassis to paint, weather and add detail to ackward areas. I have looked at the MR review but although it shows a picture of the loco with the boiler off it doesn't tell you how to do it. I have examined the exploded diagram that came with the kit. I took off the front truck and took out the screw underneath it. Then I unscrewed the drawbar and the screw just ahead of the drawbar. When I tried to lift the superstructure off it didn't budge. I looked under the chassis cover plate but there are no screws there. What am I missing? Thanks for your help Neil
