does bachmann sell regular metal rail joiners for their ez track system? i need to apply power to certain rail sections without the plug terminal stuff they offer. also, what happens when a rail joiner breaks on a piece of track. do they sell them?

ok i am jumping in here first with cab control. one of the reasons i purchased 3 train sets was to get the cabs and such, plus track, engines and rolling stock. anyways later i will go with DCC, altho the mtd plymouth wont ever get DCC, so i am planning dual cab control, one for DCC and the other for some yard switchers. well, i have a nice assortment of ez track now and it seem you guys dont sell INSULATED RAIL JOINERS. oops. now i tried all 3 sizes of the atlas insulated joiners and none will fit as the bottom flange on the bachmann track is wider than the atlas track.

what can i do to insulate track sections? use glue and shim spacers?

btw, HINT, HINT, bachmann, would you mind terribly making and selling insulated rail joiners for your ez track system?

hello all. i recently came back to n scale railroading and purchased 3 bachmann train sets, the explorer, the empire builder and the thunder valley. i also purchased some other stuff and i purchased a mtd plymouth diesel. the key thing here is all of this was purchased LAST WEEK. new stuff.

my problem is those pesky, annoying dummy knuckle couplers on all the rolling stock and the locos in the sets. i want to replace them with mchenry or mtl or accumate. ANY GOOD KNUCKLER. now the mtd plymouth came with those beautiful mchenry couplers on them. GOOD MOVE BACHMANN. the problem with mchenry is that they only seem to ship one standard type of n scale mchenry and it supposedly will fit in an accumate or mtl draft gear box.

how can i get mchenrys on the bachmann rolling stock with the dummy knucklers on them?
i will take accumate or mtl instead. HOW DO I DO THIS? what parts are needed to modify the rolling stock?

there are no useable drawings anywhere that i can find for this. i have done alot of research on this and have found ways to get mtl onto my locos, the northern 484 tender, the f7 a and b and the emd gp40, so i am not totally clueless. but i do have like 20 plus rolling stock.

while i am on the subject, the drawings that came with the locos are OUT OF DATE. they show square couplers, not rapido, WITH SQUARE COUPLER PART NUMBERS 9722 series, and are mounted with those stupid dummy knuckers.

now i dont mind converting the rolling stock in the train sets, BUT I DO PLAN ON BUYING ALOT ALOT ALOT MORE ROLLING STOCK AND ENGINES from bachmann. i would like to see the coupler problem SOLVED before i jump in with the megabucks.

one last thing bachmann, PLEASE TELL US THE COUPLERS ON ALL OF YOUR N SCALE PRODUCTS on your website. ok? you have a big future customer here.

can anyone help me here?
