Milwaukee road 9503 roof removal
« on: August 15, 2020, 03:58:15 pm »
Hi there was wondering how to get roof off of these cars from what I have read other places cut the 6 white tabs and then use a butter knife to pry roof off. Still having trouble any help is appreciated. This is for Roosevelt campaign observations car no trouble getting roof off the other cars

Dave  I appreciate the info I actually have seen this link still having trouble. I have been able to remove roofs no problem from the Chicago Aberdeen cars etc by cutting those white tabs. The roof on the Roosevelt observation car is different than these because of the observation deck. I have cut all 6 white tabs and it won’t budge also tried pressing the windows. Any other suggestions? Thanks mark
