How to remove lettering

[sailormatlac]

Actually, it's quite easy to correct. Simply remove the trucks, then cut through the longitudinal member of the frame immediately inboard of the coupler pocket. Make a second cut in the frame on the opposite side of the bolster (towards the centre of the car) - I don't recall the exact length, but it should be farther away from the bolster than the initial cut was by the distance you wish to move it away from the steps. Simply turn the cut-out frame/bolster assembly 180° and cement it back in place, then re-attach the trucks.

Thanks Wayne,

I'll give it a try before returning it to the club layout. Sometimes, I really wonder what are thinking people designing such products. There's a feeling of utter pathetism when you fail the basics while succeeding in the details!
