Title: Hood Removal, Alco S2
Post by: RichardStern on February 03, 2014, 01:38:27 PM
I would appreciate instruction on how to remove the hood of an Alco S2.  I haven't quite got this figured out. 

I want to get one of the new ones with sound, but have done a pretty nice job of weathering the one I have (IMHO) and just want to swap the hoods and truck sideframes with the sound unit. 

Thanks
Rick

Well IF your trying to remove the shell from the frame ,there are screws holding the couplers in the frame ,take them out,slider the coupler boxes out , grasp the hood in one hand and the tank in the other and wiggle the shell as your lifting it off the frame.
