Title: removing boiler shell (N) scale 4-8-2
Post by: fred59 on May 22, 2009, 11:17:00 AM
Hello everyone...
I am new to the hobby and have just purchased a Spectrum 4-8-2
looking at the exploded view I can't tell if the boiler shell is held on with screws or just snapped on..
can someone tell me how it comes off?
Thank you
Fred

Hi Fred,
Sorry I can't help, I run HO scale. Your question would probably be more appropriate for the N scale section.

Regards.
