<DIV>Here is how to remove hte boiler. Go to the Bachmann website and click on product reference.</DIV>
<DIV>This will give a drop down menu, Choose diagrams, then chose the N&W J. There is an exploded diagram.</DIV>
<DIV>It appears you need to remove the running gear to get to the screws that attach the boiler top</DIV>
<DIV>to the boiler bottom. This should be the same diagram that came with your locomotive instructions.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Regards,</DIV>
