Graham Farish Class 61xx body removal

[alangdance]

I have brought a 2nd hand Graham Farish Class 61xx but it did not come with its instruction. This is the old Poole type. Wish to remove the body.

Does any body have a copy of the instructions or know how the body is removed. Have check Bachmann site but no info on the Class 61xx.

I vaguely remember a screw underneath, in the vicinity of the cylinders.   Then the front end of the chassis can drop, and the whole chassis slides forwards past some lugs in the rear of the body.     

 

Its got to be best part of 20 years since I last took one apart, so I might have mis-remembered.

Yep, it's the screw that also holds the front pony truck in. Remove it and slide the chassis forward a touch and it will come out. The cylinder moulding will now be loose and will easily fall off and can be tricky to put back on.
