If you have the roof off, just glue the weights to the floor, job done. Why disassemble it any farther?
I should’ve elaborated further, my bad! I can not get the roof off and I’m afraid it will break. Is that the only piece that comes off? Is it designed to just snap in place?
Menard's caboose looks like a "Knock off" of Lionel's small caboose. If so, the roof will come off as it is pushed into the window shell from the top. Just pry it off slowly all the way around. The window shell snaps into the side of the body at the window openings.

Menards’ caboose is the former K-Line model from the 1990s.
