were the couplers that came with the locos made of plastic. if so did they have the plastic wisker that was intended to keep the knuckel closed? If so those are Junk IMO. put metal Kadee on and they will not only look better,perform better but also you can use the A unit only hooked to your train without the B unit.
the plastic knuckle couplers are not that good. they bend easy under load. if you do use a plastic nuckel use the ones with the springs that hold the knuckel closed. they are much better than the plastic wisker.

They are the Bachmann Easymates, factory installed.
And one good thing is i can run my Old horn hook rolling stock with the A unit if i choose too. Yep i still have my rolling stock from the mid to late 1970s and still run them now and then.
So for me it works out well.
