Can I get some pictures of what couplers on the Thomas and Friends models look like? All I've seen are hooks, how do hooks connect to hooks? What am I not seeing?

Does anyone have any pictures of two coaches coupled together? A close up one?

This might be off topic a little but I have a question for Duckfan. 1. What is the size of Oliver compared to the Bachmann Thomas because I am thinking of buying one. 2.Where did you get him and how much was he?
Thanks
Ready for New Items!!

Getting BOT here, I found a picture in the photo gallery, it showed the couplers close, and I know know how they look, and how they work!

We could talk that in a pm message.

Also, Does anyone know where I can get a replacement coupler for a Hornby Bill/Ben? They are smaller.

Answer for you and Sparks:
Oliver is in scale with Thomas.  He is also a good $80-90 from where I got him.  (Hornby is expensive)  Only engines I hear are WAY TOO BIG are Bill and Ben.
