My fat fingers dropped an engine. The trucks came off which in a good way helps because I now know (I think) how it works. Bad news. Now it does not go. Power is going to it as the lights come on but the motor does not run. Thoughts? Or is it now just decoration.

looks like maybe the tab to motor brush got bent and perhaps it is not making contact.
Are the contacts clean, looks like a lot of fuzz on the truck?
So after multiple google searches and even email bachmann I can't seem to be able to find out how to proper remove these trucks. If I can find out how to properly maybe I can find out if I actually broke it bad or is repairable. What google says is the way to remove them does not match this model.
