I need to remove the boiler from the frame and it is not coming off. It apprears to be stuck over the front truck, but I can find nothing that is holding it on. How do you remove the boiler?

There are a few hidden screws, most notably the rear ashpan screw. The link has photos.
If the link does not work just google " Dissassembly of a Bachmann Shay"

Thanks, that helped. I was unsure about a screw under the pickup pad.

Glad I could help.
