Hey everyone,

I need some help. I have an old Atlantic coast line train that I would like to convert couplings from horn hook(an old coupler) to the Thomas and friends Hook and loop Style. Any ideas will be appreciated! I can supply with pictures if necessary. :D

Thanks, Sodoradventures

I think The Bachmann would know less... :P

Things like this are usually done by the modelers themselves, not with kits provided by the companies.

It's modeling for a reason.
