David;
I politely beg to differ.
The 714 box is not 20/64. it is 5/32 + 15/64 = 25/64. And it may be longer as the measurement seems to be on the contact surface rather than the face of the

Re: Any narrow gauge news from the NMRA National Convention
I believe the best way to address this is when they become available I will need to purchase and install them on a few cars then mix them up and review the facts in real time.

Re: Any narrow gauge news from the NMRA National Convention
When I first heard about the 705 I figured it would be the standard guage coupler with a short pin. This appears to be 1/32 shorter.
