Seems the plate inside my 48116 tank car has worked loose and it rattling around inside. Anyone ever opened one up? If so, how did you do it?

Thanks

Howdy!

In these lightweight 4-axle Uerdingen wagons the tank is attached to the frame with four snaps.
These are located underneath the trucks besides the "kingpin".
Try to pry off the tank from the frame and push the tank with a screwdriver. It's a tight fit, but still sometimes fails letting the weight to rattle around.
