Aux tender

[nw-modeling-list at nwhs.org]

If you want to body mount the couplers, then yes, the coupler pocket coming off the trucks needs to be removed.  If clearance is still an issue, you might try a Kadee 30 series coupler.  They have a more compact box design.

  Hi Listers,

      I have a Bachman 611 "Big Emma"  Aux. tender and I want to body mount the #5 KD's.  The coupler box interferes with the swing of the trucks.  Any ideas about what other number coupler to use or how to go about this?  Last night I clipped off the coupler mounts on the trucks and thought afterwards that maybe I shouldn't have done that.

      I would also like to replace the wheelsets with metal ones (Jay Bee or Reboxx).  Which would work best?

      If indeed I have messed up already anybody have another for sale?  Contact me off list at nwrlinemp72 at comcast.net


  From the left coast thanks,
  John Hecker
