I need to replace the smoke element in this locomotive. I am having difficulty in separating the upper and lower sections of the boiler to get at the smoke unit and pc board. Also, the front end of the boiler per LGB drawings appears to be able to separate from the longer sections of boiler. I can move this section up and try to pull it away from the main boiler, but the top of this boiler section remains connected to main boiler still. Can anyone give me some much needed advice on how to proceed with this repair procedure. Thanks for your attention and response.
