How do you remove B unit porthole windows?

VolphinOGR Forum Member

I have a Lionel LC+ B-Unit that I'm going to repaint. Getting the shell off and removing the smoke unit was no problem, but I can't figure out how to get these pesky porthole windows out. They are the newer dark tinted ones. I'm toying with replacing them with the clear ones, but not sure yet. Anyone have any tips/tricks to removal?

Generally, they are press fit but they may have been glued. Find something that is about the same diameter as the hole in the shell and press from the inside out.

Thanks Dan, I'll try again. I just don't want to crack the shell.
