Bachmann 81407 HO Great Northern EMC Gas Electric Doodlebug

Good day, I am trying to work out how to open this Doodlebug without causing damage to the body shell.
I have undone the 2 screws at the bottom of the chassis but train seems to be stuck together.

Are there clips along the sides of the shell holding it to the frame?

Dear Shack,
Gently work a hobby knife around the fframe and the shell will pop off.
Have fun!
