I have tryed to remove couplers but screws just come out part of the way and can’t get them off. trying to take off to install dcc decoder. I read you have to take off couplers then shell will come off, Need some help, somewhat new to this. Thanks for any help guys Ron
Yes Ron.
Once you remove the screws from the coupler boxes then slide the coupler boxes out of the opening. The shell then wiggles off the frame.

First of all make sure that you have truly unscrewed the screws completely so no threads are still engaged. Then, take a needlenose plier or a screwsticker and extract the screws. Once the screws are out, the coupler pockets can be pulled out . The shell may require a little gentle wiggle and lift straight up. Do this gently so as not to dislodge the light or your next post could be “How do I attach the lights to the light board?”
Not making fun of you, but I sense from your question that you may be a newb. No problem, hang in there…
Thanks for your help i got the screws off and couplers came off but the dam screws just would not come off, for 100 turns or more tryed pulling but no good, after that they did and installed decoder and got it going on the test track so thanks again for your help guys. Ron
