Are there any tricks to this?  I'm using one as the base model for an IC 0-6-0.  I want to replace the cab and put a sound decoder in the tender I'm building.  A lot of the removal of the cast on details will be easier with the boiler off the frame.

Anyone disassembled one?

Thanks

Thanks, the video showed me just what I needed.

Another question.  When removing the smoke unit (I'm going to discard it and add weight where it is) is it ok just to cut the wires?  Does the wire to the decoder need to be hooked up somewhere?
