help disassembling Bachmann On30 2-6-0

I’ve searched past threads and haven’t come up with an answer to this one. I’m sitting here with the Bachmann exploded diagram for the On30 2-6-0, grinding my teeth in frustration. I have tried several times to disassemble the thing, but with no success.

I’ve got as far as getting the cab off, and loosening the back end of the boiler-- beyond that, everything gets bound up,-- the front of the boiler doesn’t want to budge-- and I’m afraid of breaking something crucial if I proceed. Is there a trick to this disassembly that I’m missing?

Thanks, Harold–

That’s a wonderfully clear page. You’d think Bachmann would indicate where the lugs are on their diagram.
