All,
I tried a Kadee #5 and the amount of shim work seemed a bit excessive to me.....is there a coupler someone recommends for the MMI locomotives?  I'm pulling Bachmann rolling stock and soon fingers crossed some AMS/Accucraft cars.  Thoughts?

Guys,
Is this a first?  Did I stump everyone with a simple "which coupler to use?" question....not likely.  Then I can assume no one purchased an MMI locomotive?  K-27, K-28  .....?   I know someone has an answer out there.....ante up.

Rod,


Thanks for the info. I've tried Kadee's in HO & 0n3 The HO Kadee's sit to high and I'd need longer screws (size unknown) to mount them lower. The On3 Kadee's have the longer screws but now I need to drill & tap the tender because the screw diameter is too big.  Hopefully, Dwight can shed some light on the subject and get me pointed in the right direction.
