I plan to enlarge the cab of my expected On30 2-6-6-2 by lifting the cab roof. My question: Is the roof glued to the cab or (what I would definitely prefer) simply clipped in (if so where to press/pull to get it off?) ?
Have a look at this PDF.

I think it is glued on , i can't remove it.

I have just taken a look at one of my 2-6-6-2 s the roof is attached to the cab by 2 smal screws at the FRONT end of the cab inside the cab underneath the roof , access to these will probably only be possible by removing the cab from the chassis.
There are 6 small screws under the cab which I assume attach the cab to the chassis, be careful though the wiring and sockets for the connection between loco & tender are beneath the cab,
I doubt there is any adhesive involved but you will find this out if you go ahead with the dismantling!
