Coupler removal help

[Bill C]

I'm new to HO train hobbying. I have a new Bachmann unit (Patriots train, by Hawthorne) that needs a replacement coupler as it's missing the spring. I already have an EZ Mate replacement, but I have no idea how to disconnect the stock one from the body. It's a body mounted coupler, not truck mounted, but there doesn't seem to be any screw located near the coupler. I've tried tugging on it to some degree but I don't want to break it. Do I have to remove the whole body from the car or is there a simple trick to disconnecting it? Thanks.

It sounds like it has a snap on cover over the coupler. If so you should be able to lift the sides of the cover and it should pop off.

That worked perfectly! My Swiss army knife and I thank you!!
