Dear All,
I now have a great DCC converted Plus engine.  The only problem, is that the couplers REALLY droop.  I cannot find a Bachmann drawing as to if there should be a piece under the coupler.  There is a screw, and that is all that holds the coupler.  On other units, (this is my only Plus unit)  there is usually a square with a hole to cover the whole coupler, therefore keeping the coupler up.  If anyone has a Plus unit, could you look under the coupler for me.  I bought this unit from a LHS that is no longer open, so cannot research here.  Thanks for the help.

Drill a small diameter hole in a small square piece of styrene, and place that between the coupler and the screw. That should work.
