It looks like you've already cemented the floor in place, but I think that it could have been made removeable by sectioning it as I did with my bay window caboose re-build.

The truss rods would have made it very difficult. Plus, the instructions gave me a very good tip on the truss rods - glue the car sides to the floor before pulling the truss rods over the needle beams. This will stretch the "fishing line" truss rods so they don't look slack, without warping the floor! The instructions suggest leaving the cupola roof loose to allow for interior lighting using a battery. Nope Nope I don't know why someone would want to put interior lighting in this thing, the prototype did not even have a restroom!
