Hi Breston
This is one of my favorite loco's lots of detail but at a price very very delicate. Do not worry I snapped mine too, I know the feeling. I find it a very hard loco to re-assemble especially around the cab with the recessed D-ten. I ended up filing a slight taper on the leading edges to help it go together easier.
Can I just make 2 suggestions 1st I find 7 o clock the best location for getting the speedo cable back on and if you want to leave the cover on I really suggest you consider another decoder. I did more damage to it as I replaced 2 hornby decoders and since I went to another brand no a problem.
Best of luck
