I just acquired a set of Lionel passenger cars set 6-29046. I would like to try my luck at putting some people in the seats. The directions say to remove the two screws and the roof will come off. There must be more to it than that. There appears to be two catch clips on each side centered over the windows. Squeezing the side of the car does not help.
Any advise would be greatly appreciated,
Thanks, Doug B.

This morning I viewed the YouTube which I hope will assist you. I did not test the process to lift off the cover of the "baby Madison " car. I hope you understand this so there are no guarantee this video will solve your problem.
Please perform a search on Google using the following:
Lionel "Baby Madison" car access video
This is a jon Brooks video.
Much success to today with the little trick from the video and Lionel.

Thanks, John, I'll take a look at it.
Problem solved, It just took "brute force". I tried taking the roof off the baggage car by removing the screws as directed and roof came off just like the directions said. So I figured the other car must have been assembled before the paint was completely dry. So with a lot of pressure it came apart. There are 4 little tabs with the little clip edge about 1/4 the way in from the ends.
