I don't have the locomotive in front of me at the moment but there is a screw on the back that appears to secure the body to the frame. I can't find how to release the front of the body. Removing the screw on the back permits the rear of the body to lift up and the tank portion of the body slides back but I can't get the body to separate from the front of the frame. Thanks again. Regards, Mark
