Razor/snap saw. One of the smaller ones. I've just glued the engineer into his seat and will post photo's of the cab from the other side showing what was cut out. The archway is correct on the fireman's side but they put a plug behind it. I am guessing the Lionel version has something stuffed in the area between the engineer's side and the fireman's and that's why the engineers panel is mounted so shallow. It looks like that panel should be swung into the area between the cabs at about a 45 degree angle. The vertical motors are hiding where the main transformer and boiler would be on the real engine and there would have been a bulkhead an access door at the back of the cab between the two stations and another one on the front side that would allow access to the motor control units just in front of the cab.
