hello there again all simon greasly here
i was just wondering and this is for those famillier with captain punjab's thomas the bachmann engine series. Anyway the way the movie is makes it look like the Thomas models can pull regular bachmann rolling stock and regular bachmann engines can pull thomas and friends rolling stock is this possible if so let me know.
thx
its possible because i do it all the time :D
thomas copularas are lower than reg. cupalers you hook it to reg. car by taking the horn and hook cupler and hooking it to the place where the real cupaler hooks ;)
does that make sense now :)
Trainboy
whats a horn and hook coupler ???
This is a horn hook (http://web4.hobbylinc.com/icon/hrp/hrp3013.jpg)
This is a knuckle (http://www.billstrainsandtrack.com/catalog/156.jpg)
This is a hook and loop coupler or a "Thomas" coupler (http://uktrainssource.co.uk/items_images/1114868472couplers.jpg)
Or you could use a piece of wire and tie the couplings together.
g.g. as a friend please tell me where did you find those couplers
There are 3 couplers there... Which one.........................
the "thomas" couplers g.g. i need them badly
The "Thomas" coupler shown in the picture is for a Large Scale ("G") size locomotive. The hook & loop couplers used on the HO/OO sized Thomas equipment are somewhat different in look and mounting methods.

The hook and loop couplers used on the Bachmann Thomas range are available seperately in packs of 6 from Bachmann. The item No is 78979 and cost $6.50
