Title: What kind of coupler?
Post by: kbell1958 on January 13, 2008, 11:36:59 AM
I recently bought a Bachmann crane and floodlight car off Ebay.  It has the older truck-mounted horn-hook couplers on it.  I'd like to replace them with Kadees or something similar.  Kadee's conversion chart says a #27 but has a question mark beside it indicating they're unsure.  Any recommendations?

Thanks, Keith

You are best off by cutting off the talgo mounting and body mounting the coupler.
