Hi,

I was trying to replace a rapido coupler with a knuckle coupler and accidentally lost the bottom part of the casing that holds the coupler as well as the screw. This is for a 70186 N 3 Dome Tank Car - Pennsalt.

Do you guys know if I can buy these pieces or of there is some fix? I was thinking on gluing a small piece of plastic to replace the bottom part of the casing.

Thanks.

Thanks James. Just ordered the MT conversion kit.

Thanks!

Hi,

I got a new Dash 840. It comes with rapido couplers and I want to switch them to knuckle couplers.

This link shows the rapido couplers currently installed in the loco,as well as the spring and housing.

Could you guys please recommend how to do this and what parts do I need to buy? I actually lost the spring of one of the sides.

Thanks.

Hi, I just completed my first layout which has curves with radius of 11.25 and 12.5.

I have 1 GP40 Sante Fe locomotive which I like, however, the GE Dash 8-40C (Norfolk Southern) really catched my eye.

Do you guys think this loco will work on these curve radius? If it works, will it work fine? or should I just get another GP40?

Thanks.
